3 takeaways from Rams addressing OL with Keagen Trost
The Rams fortified the trenches with the selection of Keagen Trost, who can play all five positions up front.
With the 93rd pick in the 2026 NFL Draft, the Los Angeles Rams selected Missouri's Keagan Trost . An offensive tackle, Trost fills a critical need for the team, while also providing position flexibility. Here are three observations from the selection.
The Rams have a swing tackle for now With Warren McClendon Jr. inheriting Rob Havenstein's role as a starter, the team needed someone to replace McClendon's old job as a backup swing tackle. The Rams likely won't re-sign D.
J. Humphries, and David Quessenberry is more of a body than an instant backup. Trost brings needed depth at a position that's difficult to resupply during the season.
Warren McClendon Jr. has one year to prove himself McClendon is entering a contract year and has never been the Rams' full-time starting tackle. The Rams love McClendon and I do not see this being a move to replace him.
