Emmanuel Forbes Jr., a cornerback recently claimed off waivers from the Washington Commanders, was the 16th overall pick in the 2023 draft. At 6 feet and 180 pounds, he demonstrated versatility, competitive toughness, and ball skills during his time in the league. Under former coach Ron Rivera, Forbes started six games as a rookie and recorded one interception. This season, he continued to show promise, again intercepting a pass under new coach Dan Quinn. The Rams, familiar with Forbes from pre-draft evaluations, have added him to their cornerback group, waiving Charles Woods to make room for him.
