The NFL trade deadline is over, and the Los Angeles Rams stood pat on what they had in terms of roster personnel. No big trades, no headliners. The team resisted the urge to pry elite cornerback Sauce Gardner from the New York Jets, despite the trade being very similar to a trade made in 2019 for then elite cornerback Jalen Ramsey.
Ultimately, the trade for Tennessee Titans slot cornerback Roger McCreary may have been enough to set this defense on track to stymie the best NFL offenses the rest of the way.
