The Los Angeles Rams Pick Ty Simpson

Introduction

The Los Angeles Rams chose Ty Simpson in the 2026 NFL Draft. He is a quarterback from Alabama.

Main Body

The Rams want a new player for the future. Other teams did this before. They get a new player before the old player leaves. Now the team can trade for other good players. They can get a player like Maxx Crosby. They do not need to worry about the quarterback position. Ty Simpson fits the team's style of play. He and the coach, Sean McVay, had secret meetings. They planned this together before the draft.

Conclusion

Ty Simpson will learn to play for the Rams. He will take over when Matthew Stafford stops playing.
