Rams put CB Roger McCreary on injured reserve, re-sign former starter Derion Kendrick

Roger McCreary was placed on injured reserve after injuring his hip on his first defensive snap; the Rams claimed Derion Kendrick to bolster cornerback depth.

  • On Wednesday, the NFC-leading Los Angeles Rams placed cornerback Roger McCreary on injured reserve and claimed cornerback Derion Kendrick off waivers from the Seattle Seahawks.
  • Roger McCreary had been playing mostly on special teams since a trade with Tennessee last month and was apparently hurt on his first defensive snap in the Rams' 34-7 victory over Tampa Bay last Sunday.
  • Derion Kendrick returns to the Rams after being a 2022 sixth-round draft pick who started six games in 2022 and 12 games in 2023 before a season-ending knee injury in 2024 training camp, then joined Seattle Seahawks where he recorded two interceptions in 10 games.
  • The Rams placed Roger McCreary on IR and reclaimed Derion Kendrick, with McCreary having played only one defensive snap Sunday, and coach McVay designating Tutu Atwell and Ahkello Witherspoon to return from IR.
  • Coach Sean McVay said the moves add flexibility and value players with familiarity, supporting the Rams' three-tight end sets and recent return of Ahkello Witherspoon from injured reserve.
