Rams sign Bobby Wagner to five-year deal
The Los Angeles Rams are signing veteran free agent Bobby Wagner, per a team announcement on Thursday afternoon.
The middle linebacker has reportedly earned a 5-yr, $50M contract to remain in the NFC West. Wagner will now face the Seattle Seahawks - his former team in which he had spent the last 10 seasons prior to being released - twice a year for the foreseeable future.
Signing Wagner to such a large deal is a departure from the Rams’ typical team building approach to the inside linebacker position. In recent seasons the team has spent later round draft selections on Micah Kiser and Ernest Jones. They also started undrafted free agent Troy Reeder for multiple seasons.
