Jalen Ramsey is not happy with those spreading rumors about his future with the Rams. He issued a statement asking no one to speak to him and his agent. Calling the rumors ‘entertaining’, he asked those spreading them to not act like they are speaking facts.

“Don’t speak for me or my agent please lol… y’all have fun with y’all opinions, I’m cool with that. It’s entertaining really, but don’t act like you speaking facts about something only few know about. Things will get addressed when we feel like it (if we ever do). God bless,” Ramsey tweeted.

According to recent reports, the Rams are looking to trade the cornerback this off-season. The Rams have invested a lot of their future draft capital to get short-term success on the pitch. And according to NBC’s Peter King, they could get some of it back through the Ramsey trade deal.

King has projected three teams who could be interested in the deal. They are the Dallas Cowboys, the Buffalo Bills and the Super Bowl champions Kansas City Chiefs. And with the amount of talent that Ramsey has, he can fit in any team.

The wall in the Rams’ defense 

Jalen Ramsey has shown that he can be a reliable cog in the defense ever since he joined the Jacksonville Jaguars as a first-round pick in 2016. And his game has only gone up since his switch to the Rams in the 2019 season. And that stint also includes a Super Bowl title in the 2021 season.
