As the Los Angeles Rams prepare to finalize their 53-man roster by August 30, they are closely monitoring potential cuts across the NFL. With several teams likely to release experienced players, the Rams aim to strengthen their lineup, particularly in the secondary. Three names discussed include Sam Williams from the Cowboys, who has struggled to regain form after injury, Kristian Fulton of the Chiefs, potentially available due to a hefty salary cap hit, and Roger McCreary from the Lions, who is facing a challenging camp. The Rams previously traded for McCreary, making him a logical target if he becomes available.
