The Rams finished up their offseason program and have a little over a month-long break between then and training camp in late July.
During that time, theRams.com will be taking an updated look at positions on the team's roster, continuing with the outside linebackers.
Key offseason moves
- Signed Tomon Fox to a one-year deal: Spent the last four seasons with the New York Giants, playing in 37 games and starting in two.
- Re-signed Keir Thomas II to a one-year contract: Has appeared in 17 regular season games since he started playing with the Rams in 2022 after going undrafted.
- Picked up three undrafted free agents: Wesley Bailey from Louisville, Darryl Peterson III from Wisconsin and Eddie Walls III from Houston. Walls is currently on Injured Reserve for the Rams.

What's next
The group is anchored by Young recently named No. 84 on NFL Top 100 Players of 2026 and looks to find reliable depth during the offseason. Stewart provided good snaps as a rookie and although the Rams didn't select an outside linebacker in the 2026 NFL Draft, they did pick up three undrafted free agents along with signing and re-signing a player to try and provide more depth.
