The LA Rams certainly had a solid audition for 2021 inside linebacker starters simply from the way the 2020 NFL season played out for the defense. Before training camp even began, the team decided that the starters would be ILBs Micah Kiser and Travin Howard. When Howard fell to injury, the LA Rams promoted Kenny Young to the starting role. The team had one healthy linebacker left on the roster. That was Troy Reeder.
Reeder was the last off the bench, coming in as the next-man-up promotion for an injured starter Micah Kiser.
