With the 253rd pick in the 2022 NFL Draft, the Los Angeles Rams selected safety Russ Yeast out of Kansas State. Yeast is the fourth defensive back drafted by the Rams on Saturday, and Les Snead also traded a 2023 fifth round pick for Troy Hill. That’s five new defensive backs added to the roster and L.A. still has one more pick left.
The Rams are adding their 4th DB of the draft with Kansas State safety Russ Yeast. Started 13 games as an All-Big 12 safety for K-State, where he spent his last season after playing alongside Tutu Atwell at Louisville.
