Rams' Dean Connors: Signs to active roster
The Rams signed Connors from the practice squad to the active roster Tuesday.
Connors was signed to the active roster after fellow running back Ronnie Rivers (calf) was placed on injured reserve (Sept. 23). Connors was elevated to the active roster ahead of the Rams' Week 3 loss to the Broncos as the No. 3 running back behind Kyren Williams and Blake Corum. The 23-year-old will continue to fill that role for the team on the 53-man roster in Rivers' absence.

Rams' Dean Connors: Elevated for Sunday
The Rams elevated Connors from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday ahead of Sunday's game against the Broncos.
With No. 3 running back Ronnie Rivers (calf) moving to IR, Connors will be the primary depth option behind Kyren Williams and Blake Corum for Sunday's contest. The undrafted free agent out of Houston will be suiting up for his NFL debut, though it is uncertain if the 23-year-old will receive any snaps or carries in the showdown with the Broncos.

Dean Connors: Signs with Rams' practice squad
The Rams signed Connors to the practice squad Monday, Zach Edwards of the team's official site reports.
Connors put together a strong preseason, turning 26 carries into 96 yards while adding seven catches on eight targets for 53 yards across three games. He also contributed on special teams with a 25-yard kickoff return and a tackle. It wasn't quite enough for Connors to crack the 53-man roster, but after being waived Sunday, the University of Houston product will stay with the Rams as a member of the team's practice squad. He would be candidate to be elevated to the active roster if one of Kyren Williams, Blake Corum or Ronnie Rivers were to miss time.

Dean Connors: Waived despite impressive preseason
Connors was waived by the Rams on Sunday, Mike Garafolo of NFL Network reports.
Connors scored three touchdowns in the preseason, but that production wasn't enough for the undrafted free agent out of Houston to make the team. Per Garafolo, the Rams would like to add Connors to their practice squad if he clears waivers, though it's possible another team will claim Connors.

Rams' Dean Connors: Shoulders heavy workload in win
Connors rushed 18 times for 69 yards and brought in all three targets for 24 yards and a touchdown in the Rams' 20-18 preseason win over the Chargers on Thursday.
Connors led the Rams in rush attempts and rushing yards on the night, as the undrafted rookie got an extended look in the wake of the trade of fellow back Jarquez Hunter to the Dolphins earlier Thursday. Connors rushed 26 times for 96 yards and added a 7-53-3 receiving line over three preseason games, with his latest trip to the end zone being an eight-yard touchdown reception early in the fourth quarter. Connors seemingly has a solid chance of sticking on the 53-man roster as the No. 3 running back, given his versatility and body of work this summer.

Rams' Dean Connors: Headed to LA
The Rams signed Connors as an undrafted free agent Tuesday.
Connors began his career at junior college before rushing for 977 yards and six touchdowns on 77 carries during the 2025 season while at Houston. With the Rams lacking proven talent at running back behind Kyren Williams and Blake Corum, Connors has a chance to earn a spot on the final roster.
