The Rams desperately want money
Entering free agency, the Rams had a little more than $17 million in cap space. By moving on from Robey-Coleman, they’re now over $20 million. They haven’t used any of that money yet, but there could be some moves coming.
Andrew Whitworth is an obvious candidate to return, as is Austin Blythe. Robey-Coleman’s $4.5 million savings should even be enough to cover Blythe’s entire salary for 2020.
The Rams have made it clear that they want to open up some cap space and save some money in free agency, letting Michael Brockers and Cory Littleton leave. Perhaps Les Snead has something up his sleeve – could Chris Harris Jr. be a target? – and plans to make a splash by signing an outside free agent or re-signing Dante Fowler Jr.
