The Los Angeles Rams have signed 2025 NFL Draft picks Josaiah Stewart, Ty Hamilton, Chris Paul Jr. and Konata Mumpfield to standard four-year contracts.

Stewart, the team’s third-round selection (No. 90 overall), will earn the most at $6.27 million. Hamilton ($4.63 million), Paul ($4.52 million) and Mumpfield ($4.30 million) received similar total values.

Additionally, the Rams officially signed undrafted rookies Wyatt Bowles, Malik Dixon-Williams, Shaun Dolac, Ben Dooley, Tru Edwards, Jamil Muhammad, Bill Norton, Josh Pearcy, Brennan Presley, Mark Redman, Anthony Torres, Nate Valcarcel, Jordan Waters, Trey Wedig and Mario Williams to contracts for the 2025 season.

Terrance Ferguson and Jarquez Hunter are the only draft picks who remain unsigned for the Rams, but they have plenty of time between now and training camp to work out deals.

The Rams held minicamp over the weekend, but the aforementioned players did not get on the field for the first time until Monday with some of the team’s veterans.

L.A. is rightfully excited about its draft picks this year as the Rams moved up three times to make selections, which resulted in them only adding six players.

Rams general manager general Les Snead previously explained that the team was so aggressive due to the lack of talent at the end of the draft. “I think it was based on our roster, how the board was going and players that you really were convicted could come in and contribute, whatever the vision for the role was,” Snead said.

“It was starting to get thin so we said, ‘You know what? Instead of waiting and let the draft happen to you, let’s go attack the draft.’ When you do that, you have to give up some picks but we thought that was the more appropriate thing to do as this thing evolved over the course of the each round.”

Rams facing Jaguars in London during 2025 season

The Rams are set to face the Jacksonville Jaguars at Wembley Stadium in London as part of the NFL’s Week 7 schedule this season. Kickoff is scheduled for 6:30 a.m. PT on NFL Network, with streaming options available through NFL+.

“We’re excited to return to London this October to help drive the NFL’s continued growth on the international stage,” Rams President Kevin Demoff said in a statement.

“Kroenke Sports and Entertainment is one of the largest sports and entertainment organizations in the world and growing the Rams footprint globally is a key priority for our team, whether through year-round engagement across our seven global markets or playing abroad.

“We look forward to facing the Jaguars in a world-class environment like Wembley Stadium, the national stadium of England, which will be a memorable experience for our players, coaches, and fans.”
