Instead of signing Dante Fowler to a long-term deal this offseason, the Los Angeles Rams took the safe approach by convincing the linebacker to return on a hefty one-year, $12 million deal.
With Fowler already indicating he would love nothing more than to be around for the long run with the Rams, this deal seems like the perfect motivation factor to make sure the former first-round pick comes through with a solid 2019 campaign.
Since Los Angeles hasn’t even participated in their first preseason game, Fowler obviously still has a long way to go when it comes to proving to the Rams that he deserves to be around for the long run.
