The Los Angeles Rams will place OLB Matt Longacre on injured reserve due to a back injury ending his 2017 season per Head Coach Sean McVay:
Matt’s a guy that...is fighting through a back injury and unfortunately, Matt’s going to be a guy that we are going to end up placing on IR and he’s going to have to have surgery on that back as well.
Thus ends Longacre’s third season in the NFL, all with the Rams. An undrafted free agent the Rams added following the 2015 NFL Draft, Longacre is scheduled to become a restricted free agent in the offseason.
