Breakout Rams defender could turn Week 3 into a nightmare for Eagles

Cobie Durant isn’t a household name yet, but through two weeks, he’s been one of the Los Angeles Rams’ most reliable defenders on the outside.

Thrust into a heavy perimeter role, the fourth-year corner has responded with poise and production, allowing just three catches on seven targets for 33 yards while grabbing an interception. For a Los Angeles defense searching for new stars in the secondary, Durant has been a steadying presence.

That steadiness will be critical against the Philadelphia Eagles in Week 3, whose receiving corps ranks among the league’s most dangerous.
