Rams announce team captains for 2020 season

The Rams have three first-time captains this year.

Despite having the third-youngest roster in the NFL, the Rams certainly don’t lack leadership. They have veteran leaders in all three phases of the game, most notably with Jared Goff, Aaron Donald, Andrew Whitworth and Johnny Hekker.

They were all voted captains this season, along with five other players. The Rams announced their 2020 captains on Wednesday, headlined by the trio of Goff, Robert Woods and Cooper Kupp. On defense, John Johnson, Michael Brockers and Donald are also captains, as well as Hekker on special teams.

This is the first time Johnson, Kupp and Woods have been captains with the Rams, so they’ve clearly earned the respect of their teammates. The others are no surprise, as all of them were captains last year, too.

In 2019, the Rams only had six captains.
