Rams Lock in Safety Curl with $36M Deal

0:00On March 6, the Los Angeles Rams are beefing up their defense this off-season. They traded for cornerback Trent McDuffie from the Kansas City Chiefs to strengthen their secondary. On top of that, they locked in safety cam Curl with a new three-year contract worth $36 million, up to a max of $39 million. This deal more than doubles Curl's pay from his previous contract, which averaged just under $6 million a year. His agency, Milk and Honey Sports, negotiated the extension, keeping him in Los Angeles for the long haul. Curl made it clear after the season that he wanted to stay with the Rams, calling it a great winning organization. Over the past two seasons, he's played in 33 games, racking up 201 tackles, plus past his defense, sacks, and a couple of picks. Fans and analysts see this as a smart move to build around proven talent. Curl's versatility in the back end gives the Rams stability as they push for another strong year. With three agencies still heating up, expect the Rams to keep hunting for more defensive pieces to round out the unit and stay competitive in the NFC.
