What are the physical measurements of a Los Angeles Rams prototypical linebacker? Looking ahead to the 2022 roster, with only Ernest jones, Travin Howard, Christian Rozeboom, and Jake Gervase currently under contract, 6’ 2’ and 225 lbs would be about right.
Offensive football in the NFL has been transitioning to the passing game for decades and transitioning physical safeties into linebackers has been going on for just as long. Gone are the days when teams consistently ran the ball on first and/or second down. Nowadays, fans are just as likely to see four wide receivers on first down as a power-I formation.
