How the new CBA impacts the Rams in 2020 and beyond

NFL players approved the new CBA Sunday, which will have an impact on the Rams in 2020 and future years.

Jalen Ramsey deal coming?

Just as the Cowboys were waiting on the CBA vote before signing Dak Prescott and Amari Cooper this offseason, the Rams were likely waiting on this news before extending Ramsey. Now that they know there won’t be a lockout, it could open the door for Ramsey’s deal to happen soon.

The salary cap is going to rise, though teams don’t know by how much in the next couple of years. But considering it’s increased by roughly $10 million per year, it stands to reason that the cap will rise by even more than that in 2021. And the more cap space the Rams have next year and beyond, the more room they’ll have to fit all of their top players – Ramsey included – under the umbrella.
