Kyren Williams

Rams general manager Les Snead “indicated the team would be open to” negotiating a contract extension for Kyren Williams this offseason.

Williams enters the fourth, and final, year of his rookie contract this offseason, making him eligible for an extension, if the Rams are willing to negotiate one. Team reporter Stu Jackson notes that the Rams have not extended a running back contract since doing so with Todd Gurley in 2018. Gurley remained a Ram through 2019 but was ultimately released, having been plagued by worsening knee issues. Williams remained healthy through the 2024 season but dealt with foot and ankle issues in 2022-2023. Sean McVay adds that Williams has “probably played more than any running back over the last two years, so that’s something to think about.” Snead and McVay’s comments can potentially be read as public negotiation tactics. An extension seems likely.
