Jared Verse, the Los Angeles Rams' outside linebacker and reigning Defensive Rookie of the Year, is pushing for a dual role on the offense. He revealed that he has repeatedly requested head coach Sean McVay to allow him to take some snaps on offense, particularly in red-zone situations. Despite his eagerness, McVay has consistently brushed off these requests.

Prior to his NFL career, Verse played various positions, including tight end, during his high school years at Central Columbia. His athleticism is reflected in his impressive high school stats: 23 receptions for 487 yards and five touchdowns. While it's not uncommon for defensive players to occasionally cross the line to offense, the challenge of mastering two positions at this level is significant. The Rams could leverage Verse's size and skills in creative ways, reminiscent of other players like J.J. Watt and Mike Vrabel who have found success in dual roles.
