John Johnson III doesn’t even have a team right now and he’s already been suspended by the NFL for the first three weeks of 2025. According to NFL Network’s Tom Pelissero, Johnson’s suspension became official on Wednesday. He remains a free agent after spending a short period of time with the Rams in 2024.
Pelissero didn’t elaborate on the suspension.
Johnson was drafted by the Rams in the third round of the 2017 NFL Draft out of Boston College. He spent four seasons with the Rams, then signed a free agent contract with the Browns in 2021. After two seasons...
The Los Angeles Rams have announced the additions of 15 players to their practice squad. Following roster cuts, NFL teams must wait for players to clear waivers before signing them to the practice squad. While the Rams lost four players to waiver claims, they were able to fill 15 of their available 16 practice squad spots. Here are the 15 practice squad additions:
The Los Angeles Rams can boast that they had one of the deepest rosters in the preseason, probably a byproduct of Sean McVay’s decision to rest all important players for 95% of those games, because four of the players that McVay cut on Tuesday were claimed on Wednesday:
Those four players will now be on the 53-man rosters of those other teams, including one player going to a division rival by Seattle claiming Kendrick.
The Rams did not make any...
Every team in the NFL had to cut down to 53 players on Tuesday. Now, all of those players will have to go through the waiver process which makes them available to any team. However, while there were some big names released, few players will actually get cut. In 2023, only 2.5 percent of players cut were claimed by another team. The Los Angeles Rams will certainly hope for that to be the case for some of their roster cuts.
It’s worth noting that if a player is claimed off of waivers, that player must get signed directly to the...
The Los Angeles Rams made their 53-man roster cutdowns on Tuesday and the one player who drew the most ire for making it onto the team was veteran linebacker Troy Reeder. Not only because Reeder is Reeder, but doubly so because Reeder is not fifth round rookie Chris Paul, who was released by the team and could be claimed on Wednesday’s waiver wire pickups.
Here was the comment with the most likes by Rams fans on Tuesday:
Ramfest: Troy Reeder is garbage man WTF. Pooh Paul Jr is an actual draft pick and looked good. There are many Troy...
The Los Angeles Rams put out their initial 53-man roster, and it has been met with much fanfare, but there has also been some controversy as the Rams cut Chris Paul Jr. after trading away two picks in the latest NFL draft to get him.
The draft compensation wasn’t outrageous, L.A. sent picks 201 and 202 to the Minnesota Vikings, for the chance to move up to pick 172 and grab Paul out of Ole Miss. Still, it’s notable when a team clearly covets a player, only to end up letting them go.
For those who follow Turf Show Times,...
The Los Angeles Rams have nearly 50 players who could be subject to waivers as they cut down from 90 players to 53 by the August 26 deadline and beyond. The Rams made those cuts on Tuesday and now have a 53-man roster.
These waived players will be subject to the waiver wire pool and can be claimed by another team.
If not, they can be a part of Los Angeles’s 16-man practice squad, which will likely be finalized the day after the cutdown date.

Yesterday afternoon the Los Angeles Rams trimmed their roster to the NFL requirement of 53 players for the regular season. Les Snead, Sean McVay, and the Rams staff had some difficult decisions to make after a long summer of OTAs, training camp, and a three-game set in the preseason. Kevin Demoff acknowledged that this team is the deepest and one of the most talented Rams teams since their return to Los Angeles. With that being said, the brass do to let go of some talented young names in the end.

Dolac was the only undrafted free...
The Los Angeles Rams cut their roster down to 53 players on Tuesday and now have an initial roster going into the season. There were no surprises and the Rams are ready for Week 1 against the Houston Texans.

Matthew Stafford, Jimmy Garoppolo, Stetson Bennett
Kyren Williams, Blake Corum, Jarquez Hunter
Davante Adams, Puka Nacua, Tutu Atwell, Jordan Whittington, Konata Mumpfield, Xavier Smith

The Los Angeles Rams must get their roster down to 53 players by Tuesday’s deadline. Who will make it through cut down day and who will end up as a free agent or on the waiver wire?
The Rams traded KT Leveston to the Browns early on Monday. They have many more players left to part with before they can say that the job is done. The moves and rumors will be tracked here in this post, so keep refreshing the page for more updates.

Ahead of their cuts to shape the 53-man regular season roster, the Los Angeles Rams have traded offensive tackle KT Leveston to the Cleveland Browns, per Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. The return compensation back to Los Angeles is reportedly a 2028 seventh round draft selection.
The Rams picked Leveston in the seventh round of the 2024 NFL Draft. Coming out of college from Kansas State there was a sense he could play at tackle as well as along the interior. Since joining LA, Leveston has primarily been a tackle particularly on the left side.
The second-year lineman [was a...
