REPORT: Rams Defender Receives National Recognition

The Los Angeles Rams are on a roll, having won four of their last five games, including their last four games in a row. The Rams played well against the New York Jets on Sunday, especially on defense.

Adam H. Beasley of the Pro Football Network recently credited multiple players from around the National Football League with productive Sunday games. Beasley credited Rams defensive back Kamren Curl for his performance against the Jets.

“It’s hard to overstate how valuable Kam Curl has been to the Rams’ defense this year," Beasley said. "On Sunday, the Rams’ defense held its opponent to 14 or fewer points for the third time in their four-game winning streak. And Curl was a big reason why.

"In 63 snaps Sunday against the Jets, Curl had a key strip sack that Jared Verse recovered. Curl also totaled five tackles (one for loss). He was a big part of the Rams’ defense that held Aaron Rodgers to 6.1 yards per attempt despite not breaking up a single pass."

Curl's forced fumble was a massive play in the game. Not only did it steal possession from the Jets, but it also happened with the score tied 9-9 in the fourth quarter and the ball in Jets' territory.

The Rams would score a touchdown three plays later and never looked back, largely thanks to the spark provided by Curl's forced fumble.

Rams defensive coordinator Chris Shula noted how Curl and the rest of the Rams' defensive backs have bonded throughout the season.
