The Los Angeles Rams secured a crucial victory against the New Orleans Saints, improving their record to 6-6. This win has helped elevate their position in power rankings, with some publications recognizing them as a potential playoff contender.

To bolster their defense, the Rams have claimed cornerback Emmanuel Forbes Jr. off waivers from the Washington Commanders. Head coach Sean McVay expressed confidence in Forbes, whom they had previously evaluated during his college career at Mississippi State.
