Rams Pursue Bobby Wagner for Defensive Boost

0:00On March 23rd, the Los Angeles Rams are beefing up their defense after falling short in the NFC championship to the Seattle Seahawks. They've traded for cornerback Trent McDuffie and added cornerback Jalen Watson plus linebacker Grant Steward in Free Agency. Last season, the Rams ranked 10th in points allowed at 20.4 per game and 17th in total yards at 327.5. With most top free agents off the board, experts see the Rams targeting a reunion with familiar linebacker Bobby Wagner. The 35-year-old brings proven leadership and could slot right into their linebacker group. Fans and analysts like the idea, given Wagner's history with the Rams back in 2022, where he started every game and earned all pro nods. His career spans over a decade, including Stince with Seattle and Washington, and he still posted strong numbers last year with 1.62. Tackles, 4.5 sacks, and two picks. Recent grades rank him among the top linebackers 9th out of 88 qualifiers at 78.6 overall.

1:05Now in year 15, the 10-time pro-buller eyes, another Super Bowl run on a contender like the Rams. A deal might come cheap at around a 1-year pack worth $7,600,000 per projections, helping Los Angeles push deeper, and to play off contention this coming season.
