The Los Angeles Rams will have some decisions to make this offseason as it pertains to the secondary, specifically the cornerback position. Last offseason, the Rams put a band-aid on the issue, signing Darious Williams and Tre White in free agency. After White didn’t work out, the Rams brought back Ahkello Witherspoon who was a good fill in over the back half of the year.
From a logistical standpoint, there will be plenty of opportunity to finally address the secondary for the first time since the team traded away Jalen Ramsey. Williams will be 32 going into next season while Witherspoon will also be on the wrong side of 30. The Rams need to get younger at those spots and the 2025 offseason should allow them to do just that.
Cutting Williams would save the Rams $3.8-million and it’s very possible that the team looks to move on this offseason. Williams was a steady presence last year on the boundary, but his smaller frame isn’t going to allow him to age well.
Bringing back Witherspoon is also an option, but let’s play a little Rams guessing game.
