The Los Angeles Rams are set to emphasize tight ends in their 2026 offensive scheme. Following a successful offensive performance last season, the team opted against signing high-profile wide receivers and instead drafted a tight end early. With key players returning, including quarterback and skill position players, the Rams appear ready to implement more two and three tight end sets. Data indicates that tight ends have been increasingly targeted in the passing game, which may continue as the Rams evolve their offense for the upcoming season. The Rams' offensive adjustments will be closely observed as the summer training camp approaches.
