The Los Angeles Rams' defense is evolving, with several unheralded players poised to make an impact in the upcoming 2025 season. Defensive tackle Ty Hamilton, a Day 3 draft pick, is expected to disrupt opposing offenses, capitalizing on his college performance where he recorded eight sacks without missing a game. Outside linebacker Brennan Jackson, while previously underutilized, boasts significant size that could translate into a strong camp performance, especially with competition from new recruit Josaiah Stewart.

Inside linebacker Shaun Dolac, who led the FBS in tackles last season, faces a fierce battle for a roster spot in a volatile unit, offering plenty of opportunity. Lastly, cornerback Emmanuel Forbes, once a first-round draft choice, is battling for recognition after being cut by the Washington Commanders, and could regain his status with a standout performance at training camp.
