The dust has settled from the 2026 NFL trade deadline, with winners and losers from around the league. And maybe the Los Angeles Rams belong on the latter side of the list?
We're talking about a team that has lost Puka Nacua to injury after last week and Davante Adams as well. So wouldn't the front office go out and get, say, Josh Downs or Keenan Allen to help out? Apparently not. Seems like the hope is that the current depth chart can hold up with Matthew Stafford under center.
But it's also a reminder that a lot of their future draft picks belong to other teams -- they traded next year's first round pick and a 2028 second-rounder in the Myles Garrett deal, a third went to the Chiefs for Trent McDuffie... so their cupboard is a little bare.
Still,
though. There are a lot of question marks at the position going forward.
