As the Rams gear up for training camp, a key player to watch is cornerback Ahkello Witherspoon. Entering his third season with the Rams, Witherspoon is recognized not for flashy stats, but for his reliability and experience in the secondary. In 2023, he started all 17 games, recording three interceptions and 14 passes defensed. Last season, while his start count dropped, he still contributed solidly with 31 tackles and an interception across 13 games.

With competition heating up for the starting cornerback spots, Witherspoon’s status as a consistent performer could be pivotal for the Rams’ defense in 2025. His familiarity with the team's schemes and ability to compete against quality defenders like Darious Williams and Cobie Durant may secure him a significant role, ensuring he remains a crucial asset as the Rams strive for excellence this season.
