Overview

  • Alaric Jackson's new contract includes $35–$37 million in guaranteed money, solidifying his role as the Rams' starting left tackle through the 2027 season.
  • The 26-year-old has started 29 games in the past two seasons, excelling in both pass and run blocking with only four sacks allowed in over 1,000 snaps each year.
  • Jackson ranked among the top free-agent offensive tackles and was listed as a top-three tackle in Gregg Rosenthal's Top 101 Free Agents list.
  • Despite a two-game suspension in 2024 for violating the NFL's personal conduct policy, Jackson earned high Pro Football Focus grades for his performance last season.
  • The Rams also restructured quarterback Matthew Stafford's contract earlier on Friday, further stabilizing their offensive core for the upcoming seasons.
