Overview

  • Los Angeles announced the extension on Saturday after Landman’s agency publicized the agreement on social media.
  • Multiple outlets report the deal at three years and $22.5 million with about $15.6 million guaranteed.
  • In 10 games this season, the 27-year-old has 91 tackles, four forced fumbles, two fumble recoveries and 1.5 sacks.
  • Landman was voted a captain in his first Rams season and wears the green dot as the defense’s on-field communicator.
  • Analysts peg the $7.5 million average among roughly the 25 highest linebacker salaries, reflecting strong value for an 8-2 team with a top scoring defense.
