Jared Goff to sign rookie contract with Rams

The Los Angeles Rams locked up No. 1 overall pick Jared Goff.

The quarterback is expected to sign his four-year contract Thursday, per NFL Media's Steve Wyche according to a team source. As with all first-round contracts under this CBA it comes with a fifth-year option.

L.A. got the deal done ahead of next week's mandatory minicamp, which will enable the starting quarterback to participate fully without outside distractions.

Goff is expected earn the starting quarterback gig from Day 1. The Cal grad already owns better accuracy and arm talent than the heap of middling signal-callers clogging the Rams' roster.
