The Los Angeles Rams could potentially bolster their secondary, an area that could benefit from enhancement, with the recent release of safety Kevin Byard by the Philadelphia Eagles. This move presents the Rams with a chance to address their defensive backfield and strengthen their overall defensive unit.
The Los Angeles Rams faced challenges in their secondary last season, ranking among the bottom five teams in the NFL for passing yards allowed. Consequently, improving their defensive backfield has become a priority for the team.
A recent opportunity arose with the announcement from the Philadelphia Eagles of their intention to release safety Kevin Byard, making him available as a free agent. Despite a relatively slow year in interceptions, Byard’s performance showcased solid numbers, including a career-high 122 total tackles and 80 solo tackles.
Despite approaching 31 years old, Byard still presents a valuable combination of pass coverage skills and tackling ability, qualities that could greatly benefit the Rams, especially given their current needs.
Should the Rams pursue Byard, his veteran presence would complement the youthfulness of the Rams’ defense, offering leadership alongside stalwarts like Aaron Donald. This veteran influence would be particularly beneficial in the secondary.
Whether through the signing of a free agent like Byard or by drafting secondary help in the upcoming NFL Draft, addressing this area is crucial for the Rams to remain competitive next season.
