One elite pass rusher is already off the table for Jets
Dante FowlerLOS ANGELES — One pass rushing option is already off the board for the Jets before free agency even started.
Linebacker Dante Fowler has re-signed with the Rams, passing up a shot at unrestricted free agency to stay with the NFC champions.
The Rams announced a deal Sunday night to keep Fowler, but didn’t disclose the terms.
The Rams acquired Fowler in a trade with Jacksonville on Oct. 30, and the edge rusher played a significant role in Los Angeles’ run to the Super Bowl. The 2015 No. 3 overall pick had two sacks in the regular season and 1 ½ more in the playoffs while creating consistent pressure on quarterbacks.
