Do Rams now sign free agent receiver?
TL;DR

Key points
- Rams did not draft a wide receiver.
- Potential free agent targets include Tyreek Hill and Deebo Samuel.

- Rams may need a veteran receiver to improve Super Bowl chances.
- Team has not committed to Puka Nacua long-term.
The veteran wideout isn’t the most explosive guy on the field, but instead, he uses his strong route-running to his advantage to get open. While with San Francisco, **Jennings** was able to help keep the team afloat during this last season while they dealt with all sorts of injuries across the roster.
Jennings is able to pick spots against defenses, and this could be perfect for the Rams. Pairing him with Nacua and Adams could completely open this offseason up, giving Stafford more firepower to work with.
Los Angeles would easily have the best offensive weapons in the NFL, and opposing defenses would have a very tough time trying to guard them. The 2026 season is Super Bowl or bust for the Rams, and if they could bring Jennings in, even on a one-year deal, it could make all the difference. At this time, the Rams number three receiver would come down to Jordan Whittington, Konata Mumpfield, and rookie C.J. Daniels. Running the highest rate of 13 personnel in the NFL, it is true that L.A. may not value a third receiver as much as some teams. However, a receiver is still a receiver and a tight end is still a tight end, so fans have to stop saying that second round pick Max Klare or Terrance Ferguson is a “receiver” pick. They’re not. They are tight ends. Adams could be the oldest starting receiver in the NFL next season. The team has yet to commit to Puka Nacua long-term with his off-field issues. Adding someone now could help L.A.’s chances of reaching the Super Bowl next season. None of these players are long-term answers by any means, but after passing on receivers in the draft that ship has already sailed. Will the Rams pick up a right-now answer?
