What CB Jalen Ramsey brings to the Los Angeles Rams defense

On Tuesday, the Los Angeles Rams made a massive splash play when they acquired cornerback Jalen Ramsey from the Jacksonville Jaguars, in exchange for a 2020 first-round pick, 2021 first-round pick, and 2021 fourth-round pick.

Ramsey — arguably the best cornerback in football — adds a unique dimension to the Rams, and does to any defense that he plays in. His natural talent, ability, size, and physicality allow him to fit and excel in what Defensive Coordinator Wade Phillips wants to do, and that’s to transition into more of a man coverage scheme.
