The Los Angeles Rams have selected Notre Dame running back Kyren Williams in the fifth round of the 2022 NFL Draft.
Williams’ rookie year contract is worth $3,969,048 with a $309,048 signing bonus, according to Sportrac. The 5-foot-9, 194 pound product from St. Louis, Mo. joins a running back room that includes Cam Akers, Darrell Henderson, Jake Funk and Xavier Jones. The Rams also employ former Notre Dame WR Ben Skowronek.
Kyren Williams (who is from STL) grew up a Rams fan and even dressed up as RB great Steven Jackson for Halloween one year as a kid.
