Rams Sign 18 Undrafted Free Agents

0:00On April 30th, the Los Angeles Rams just locked in 18 undrafted free agents right after the 2026 NFL draft. These are college players who flew under the radar, from small schools and big programs alike, now getting a shot to crash the roster of a team, chasing another Super Bowl. They announced the moves on Monday, bringing in talent like Texas quarterback Matthew Caldwell, who threw for 3,700 yards last year, plus running back Dean Connors from Houston and a beefy offensive line crew, including 6'8, Bryce Henderson from Vanderbilt. These rookies know the drill-facing off against stars like Matthew Stafford, at quarterback, Kyron Williams in the backfield, and a stacked defense, with guys like Trent McDuffy and Cam Curle. Every year, overlooked players grind for that roster spot, and the odd stack high against them. On defense, they've added linebackers like 6'5, Wesley Bailey, from Louisville and defensive linemen, such as Jalen Logan Redding from, Minnesota, all battling vets, and recent

1:01picks for reps under coordinator Chris Shula. Next month, all 18 reports to the Woodland Hills training complex for rookie mini-camp, then his training camp and preseason battles. Their draft-day silence turned into a Rams call-up, and now, the real work keeps those dreams in play.
