Rams Secure Key Defensive Asset: Kam Curl Signs Lucrative Three-Year Deal
The Los Angeles Rams have made a significant move by re-signing safety Kam Curl to a lucrative three-year, $36 million contract. This decision comes shortly after the Rams also acquired cornerback Trent McDuffie from the Kansas City Chiefs in a trade that included giving up their No. 29 pick in the upcoming 2026 NFL draft. Kam Curl, originally a seventh-round pick in 2020, has been with the Rams for the past two seasons, showcasing his talent and contributing to the team's success.
Having previously played for the Washington Commanders, Kam Curl joined the Rams in 2024 on a two-year, $8.75 million deal. During the 2025 season, Curl had a standout performance, achieving career highs in total tackles (122) and solo tackles (79). His impact was felt not only in the regular season but also in the playoffs, where he made crucial plays, including interceptions that helped the Rams advance to the NFC Championship Game.
One of Curl's memorable moments was during the divisional round game against the Chicago Bears, where he intercepted quarterback Caleb Williams in overtime, setting up the Rams for a game-winning field goal. His ability to make game-changing plays under pressure has solidified his importance to the Rams' defense. With this new contract, the Rams are investing in Curl's talent and potential to continue making significant contributions to the team's success in the seasons to come.
