After a series of block buster transactions that rung in the NFL’s new league year, the Los Angeles Rams made a smaller but significant move, by agreeing to terms on a one year contact with punt returner/wide receiver Brandon Powell. Details were not released.
Powell was signed to the Rams practice squad last November and when activated to the game day roster, sparked an LA return game that had been uninspiring up to that point. Cooper Kupp, Sony Michel, Bennett Skowronek, Tutu Atwell, JJ Koski, Jake Funk, and Buddy Howell all had returns with little success.
