82 Johnny Mundt TE

Mundt signed a reserve/future contract with the Rams on Monday.

Mundt spent the 2017 season on the Rams' practice squad, except for a brief stint on the 53-man roster in November. The 2017 undrafted rookie was returning from a knee injury as the season began, but should be able to take advantage of the Rams' offseason training program in 2018.

Mundt was waived by the Rams on Tuesday.

Mundt was promoted to the active roster early in November but only lasted two weeks. He didn't see much time as he was just a depth tight end and he may rejoin the team's practice squad if he clears waivers.

The Rams promoted Mundt to their 53-man roster on Saturday, Gary Klein of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Mundt has been on the team's practice squad since failing to make the roster at the start of the season. Third tight end Derek Carrier (hamstring) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the Texans, with Mundt likely to step into his role.
