    from Matt Verderame, Ranking the NFL’s Five Best Pass-Rushing Duos for 2026: https://www.si.com/nfl/ranking-nfl-five-best-pass-rushing-duos-2026

    1. Los Angeles Rams: Myles Garrett and Byron Young

    If anybody respectable was across from Garrett, they would be part of the top choice here. As it happens, the Rams have another star in the spot with Young, who is turning into an All-Pro talent.

    As for Garrett, what hasn’t been said about him? A future first-ballot Hall of Famer, Garrett set the single-season sacks record last season with 23 for the Browns. In the offseason, he was acquired by the Rams for defensive end Jared Verse, along with first-, second- and third-round picks, and despite being 30 years old, was still seen as worth the cost.

    Over the past six years, Garrett has been a five-time first-team All-Pro. He’s totaled 95 sacks across 97 games while constantly drawing double- and triple-teams in Cleveland. A two-time Defensive Player of the Year, he’s now getting his first real shot at a ring.

    Then there’s Young, a 28-year-old Pro Bowler coming off a career-high 12 sacks. Never missing a game throughout his three-year career, Young is durable and disruptive and, with Garrett as his counterpart, could be the biggest individual beneficiary.

    from https://theramswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/rams/2026/06/30/rams-davante-adams-konata-mumpfield-instagram-post/90749794007/

    The Los Angeles Rams have a wide-open competition for the No. 3 wide receiver spot on the depth chart this summer and among those battling for the job is Konata Mumpfield. The second-year receiver out of Pitt didn’t put up big numbers as a rookie in 2025 but he played meaningful snaps as a seventh-round pick.

    Davante Adams was a big fan of his last season, talking up the young wideout during camp and the regular season. Adams’ confidence in Mumpfield hasn’t wavered entering the 2026 campaign, either.

    Out of the blue, Adams posted a photo of Mumpfield’s locker on Instagram Monday

    from https://theramswire.usatoday.com/story/sports/nfl/rams/2026/06/30/rams-lead-nfl-in-screen-pass-success-rate-despite-vertical-approach/90754620007/?taid=6a43fae17177c90001d8c657&utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=trueanthem&utm_source=twitter

    …data from FTN Fantasy (via @nutshellsportz on X) reveals that the Los Angeles Rams paired a great downfield offense with the most efficient screen game in the NFL.

    According to the league tracking data, the Rams ranked No. 1 in screen pass success rate at 56.5% across 46 total attempts. They were the only franchise in the league to surpass the 50% success threshold on screen plays during the 2025 regular season. Additionally, the Rams finished among the league leaders in screen pass expected points added (EPA) per play, posting the seventh-best average EPA of 0.119.
