Rams fans don’t have to worry about Michael Brockers’ deal with Los Angeles falling through the way it did with the Ravens. Brockers has passed his physical with the Rams and officially signed his three-year deal with the team.
The Rams announced the news on Friday, locking up the eight-year veteran through 2022.
Brockers suffered an ankle injury in the final game of the 2019 season, which popped up during his physical after agreeing to a three-year deal with the Ravens. He took an MRI and X-rays in Houston, and after the Ravens received the results, they backed out of the contract.
Because of the coronavirus, teams aren’t able to bring players in for physicals with their doctors, which has caused some previously agreed-to deals falling apart. In addition to Brockers, it also happened with Marqui Christian and Eli Apple.
Brockers doesn’t seem concerned about his ankle injury and says he’s been working out on it all offseason, so it’s a good sign that he was able to pass a physical with the Rams.
