Rams waive undrafted rookie DB Levonta Taylor

Taylor signed as an undrafted free agent out of Florida State this year.

The Los Angeles Rams were busy after the 2020 draft signing rookies who didn’t get selected, but they’ve been forced to move on with many of them already. The team continued to trim its roster Tuesday, announcing that it has waived rookie defensive back Levonta Taylor.

Taylor signed as an undrafted free agent out of Florida State after playing both cornerback and safety for the Seminoles.

The Rams waived four other undrafted rookies earlier this month, getting the roster down to 80 players. Each NFL team will have to cut its roster to only 80 players by Aug. 16, so the Rams are getting ahead of that deadline.

Taylor made 65 tackles and had four interceptions at Florida State, playing 35 games across four seasons.
