Amid the chaos of the Cam Akers news on Tuesday, the Los Angeles Rams released kick return specialist Nsimba Webster only a week before training camp. Webster, an undrafted free agent from Eastern Washington in 2019, had been a steady presence on the Rams’ return units over the last couple seasons and so this only confirms the notion that Sean McVay is looking for a new player in that role.
Los Angeles has been focused this offseason on improving in the kicking game after finishing among the worst in the NFL in that category in 2020.
