2025 Fantasy Outlook
Thrust into a starting role around the midpoint of last season, Speights turned in 67 tackles and two pass defenses over his 17 games at inside linebacker. Christian Rozeboom, who started alongside Speights, signed with Carolina in the offseason, but the Rams re-signed Troy Reeder to go along with fifth-round draft pick Chris Paul and free-agent signing Nate Landman. Speights enters the 2025 campaign as a likely starter, but Paul's progression may keep Speights from reaching the same heights of his surprising 2024. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a three-year, $2.84 million contract with the Rams in May of 2024.
Standing out at camp
Rams coach Sean McVay singled out Speights on Thursday as someone who has been "outstanding" during training camp, Cameron DaSilva of USA Today reports.
ANALYSIS
"You can see he's really taken leaps in his second year," McVay continued. "He has really good ownership of what we're trying to get done." It's been evident at Rams camp that Speights and Nate Landman will be the team's starting inside linebackers. Los Angeles signed Speights as an undrafted free agent out of LSU last year, and he went on to appear in all 17 regular-season contests, making 10 starts.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Lock to make 53-man roster
Rams general manager Les Snead said Saturday that Speights will make the 53-man roster and be active on game days, per Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
Speights made a strong impression during training camp after signing with the Rams in May as an undrafted free agent out of LSU. Not only has he locked up a roster spot, it looks like the inside linebacker is poised to see meaningful playing time. The Rams also informed starting inside linebacker Ernest Jones that he's on the trade block, and Speights would be a leading candidate to fill the playing time void should Jones be traded.
