The Los Angeles Rams are entering yet another challenging offseason with limited cap space and several key starters set to hit free agency. They’ve navigated these waters before, still finding ways to build a star-studded roster that just won a Super Bowl, but keeping the core of the roster together this year will be difficult.
Von Miller, Odell Beckham Jr., Darious Williams, Austin Corbett, Brian Allen, Matt Gay, Sebastian Joseph-Day, Troy Reeder and Sony Michel were all starters for at least part of the 2021 season, and all of them will become free agents in March. According to Over The Cap, the Rams are projected to be $21.6 million over the cap.
With the window for teams to place the franchise tag on players opening Tuesday, there might be some wondering if the Rams will use the tag this offseason. The answer should be no.
