Rams' Derion Kendrick: Brought back by Rams
Los Angeles signed Kendrick to a contract Tuesday.
The Rams recently waived Kendrick on Friday, but it appears the team always intended to reunite with the 2022 sixth-round pick. Kendrick missed the entire 2024 campaign due to a torn ACL but had been participating in OTAs and was waived without an injury designation, indicating that he's fully healthy. He started 12 of 17 regular-season appearances in 2023 and will now compete with Darious Williams and Ahkello Witherspoon to regain a key role at cornerback.

Derion Kendrick: Let go by Los Angeles
The Rams waived Kendrick on Friday, Stu Jackson of the team's official site reports.
Kendrick suffered a torn ACL last July and missed the entire season. However, he had been participating in OTAs prior to being waived and wasn't given an injury designation, so Kendrick is presumably healthy again. The Georgia product had been a prominent part of the Rams' defense prior to getting hurt, as he started 12 of the team's 17 games in 2023. For the time being, Darious Williams and Ahkello Witherspoon appear to be Los Angeles' top outside cornerbacks.

Rams' Derion Kendrick: Participating in OTAs
Kendrick (knee) has been taking part in the Rams' offseason training activities.
Kendrick tore his ACL last July and missed the entire campaign. He had been slated for a prominent role after totaling 49 tackles and 10 defensed passes, including one interception, while playing in all 17 regular-season games in 2023. If Kendrick is able to fully return from the injury, he could again be in line for a significant role, though Darious Williams and Ahkello Witherspoon may be ahead of him on the cornerback depth chart.

Rams' Derion Kendrick: Officially goes on IR
The Rams placed Kendrick (knee) on their injured reserve list Friday.
Kendrick tore his ACL on Thursday, so the procedural transaction doesn't come as a surprise. The 2022 sixth-rounder had a promising second season as a pro last year and was in line for a significant role in the upcoming campaign, but now he doesn't figure to return to the field until 2025.

Rams' Derion Kendrick: Torn ACL confirmed
Coach Sean McVay confirmed that Kendrick suffered a torn ACL on Thursday, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.
Kendrick suffered the injury during practice Wednesday and the team suspected that he tore his ACL. With that news confirmed, he'll miss the entire 2024 season and leave a significant hole in the Rams' secondary. Los Angeles added Tre'Davious White and Darious Williams (hamstring) this offseason to bolster the unit, but White has suffered significant knee and Achilles injuries across the last few seasons.

Rams' Derion Kendrick: May have suffered ACL tear
Kendrick injured his knee Wednesday and is feared to have suffered an ACL tear, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.
Kendrick started six of his 15 games in 2022 and 12 of 17 in 2023, logging 1,341 defensive snaps across two seasons after the Rams took him in the sixth round of the 2022 NFL Draft. This will be a significant loss for the team's defense if testing confirms initial fears, even though the Rams signed CBs Darious Williams and Tre'Davious White this offseason. Williams already seemed locked in as a starter, while White is more of an unknown after suffering an ACL tear in 2021 and an Achilles' rupture in 2023 with the Bills. Apart from those two, Kendrick and slot corner Cobie Durant, the Rams don't have experienced starters or early draft picks in their cornerback room.

Rams' Derion Kendrick: Sees usage increase in second year
Kendrick recorded 49 tackles (41 solo), 10 passes defended and an interception during the 2023 regular season over 17 games played.
Kendrick was given two opportunities throughout the season to prove his worth as a starter, as he began the year starting alongside Ahkello Witherspoon and regained the role after losing it to Cobie Durant for a few weeks in the middle of the season. Kendrick wouldn't be able to hang on to the starting job on his second chance, however, and was relegated to backup duty by Week 16. Witherspoon may leave in free agency, but the Rams may elect to shore up the position in the offseason, jeopardizing Kendrick's chances of increasing his playing time for a third consecutive season.

Rams' Derion Kendrick: Ready for Week 1
Kendrick (hamstring) was not included on the Rams' injury report Wednesday, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.
Kendrick appears to be ready to go ahead of the 2023 season after he'd been nursing a hamstring injury the last couple weeks. The cornerback is expected to start in the Rams' secondary this year after compiling 43 tackles and four pass deflections over 15 games during his rookie campaign in 2022.

Rams' Derion Kendrick: Returning to practice
Kendrick (hamstring) is expected to return to practice this week, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.
Kendrick has been dealing with an injured hamstring since training camp but now seems to be close to returning. The 2022 sixth-round pick should see solid playing time this season and could even compete for a starting role in what's become a thin position group following Jalen Ramsey's departure.
