WOODLAND HILLS, CA - The Los Angeles Rams set their initial 53 with three quarterbacks (Matthew Stafford, Jimmy Garoppolo, Stetson Bennett) and a lean three-back room headlined by Kyren Williams plus rookies Blake Corum and Jarquez Hunter. A splashy receiver group includes Puka Nacua, Davante Adams, and Tutu Atwell. Up front, Sean McVay kept 10 offensive linemen and four tight ends (Higbee, Parkinson, Davis Allen, Terrance Ferguson), hinting at heavier personnel packages. On defense, first-rounder Jared Verse joins Byron Young on the edge while Kobie Turner anchors the interior. Specialists: K Joshua Karty, P Ethan Evans, LS Alex Ward.

-
