There are no longer any concerns about the contracts for Leonard Floyd and A’Shawn Robinson falling through. A month after agreeing to terms with the Rams, Floyd and Robinson officially signed their contracts on Friday, the team announced.
Both players agreed to contracts with the Rams on March 18, which was the first day of free agency. However, with the coronavirus pandemic affecting travel plans and preventing teams from bringing free agents in for physicals, it took longer than expected for these contracts to become official.
It led to some speculation that the Rams might back out of one or both deals like the Ravens did with Michael Brockers. They could’ve done so by flagging either player’s physical results, but the Rams are clearly committed to Floyd and Robinson in 2020.
Floyd’s deal is reportedly worth $10 million for one year, while Robinson got $17 million for two years, including $9.5 million guaranteed. Robinson’s deal has already been reflected on the Rams’ salary cap obligations, but Floyd’s has not.
At the moment, the Rams are more than $5 million over the cap, so they’ll need to make a move or two to get under the limit.
