It didn’t take the Los Angeles Rams long after being eliminated from the playoffs to get right back on track for next season. On Monday and Tuesday, the Rams announced the signing of 14 players to Reserve/Future contracts, bringing the total number of players under contract to 50.
Reserve/Futures contracts are for any player not on an active roster at the end of the regular season. They allow teams to lock players onto the roster without surpassing current year salary cap and 53-man roster limitations. Since the accords don’t become official until the new league year starts with its 90-man roster and new salary cap, the contracts are fairly low in risk.
