DERION KENDRICK NEWS

Let go by Los Angeles The Rams waived Kendrick on Friday, Stu Jackson of the team's official site reports.

Impact Kendrick suffered a torn ACL last July and missed the entire season. However, he had been participating in OTAs prior to being waived and wasn't given an injury designation, so Kendrick is presumably healthy again. The Georgia product had been a prominent part of the Rams' defense prior to getting hurt, as he started 12 of the team's 17 games in 2023. For the time being, Darious Williams and Ahkello Witherspoon appear to be Los Angeles' top outside cornerbacks.

Participating in OTAs Kendrick (knee) has been taking part in the Rams' offseason training activities.

Impact Kendrick tore his ACL last July and missed the entire campaign. He had been slated for a prominent role after totaling 49 tackles and 10 defensed passes, including one interception, while playing in all 17 regular-season games in 2023. If Kendrick is able to fully return from the injury, he could again be in line for a significant role, though Darious Williams and Ahkello Witherspoon may be ahead of him on the cornerback depth chart.

Officially goes to IR The Rams placed Kenrick on their injured reserve list Friday.

Impact Kendrick tore his ACL on Thursday, so the procedural transaction doesn't come as a surprise to anyone. The 2022 sixth-rounder had a promising second season as a pro last year and was in line for a significant role in the upcoming campaign, but now he doesn't figure to return to the field until 2025.

Torn ACL confirmed Coach Sean McVay confirmed that Kendrick suffered a torn ACL on Thursday, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

Impact Kendrick suffered the injury during practice Wednesday and the team suspected that he tore his ACL. With that news confirmed, he'll miss the entire 2024 season and leave a significant hole in the Rams' secondary. Los Angeles added Tre'Davious White and Darious Williams (hamstring) this offseason to bolster the unit, but White has suffered significant knee and Achilles injuries across the last few seasons.

May have suffered ACL tear Kendrick injured his knee Wednesday and is feared to have suffered an ACL tear, Adam Schefter of ESPN reports.

Impact Kendrick started six of his 15 games in 2022 and 12 of 17 in 2023, logging 1,341 defensive snaps across two seasons after the Rams took him in the sixth round of the 2022 NFL Draft. This will be a significant loss for the team's defense if testing confirms initial fears, even though the Rams signed CBs Darious Williams and Tre'Davious White this offseason. Williams already seemed locked in as a starter, while White is more of an unknown after suffering an ACL tear in 2021 and an Achilles' rupture in 2023 with the Bills. Apart from those two, Kendrick and slot corner Cobie Durant, the Rams don't have experienced starters or early draft picks in their CB room.
