The Rams will be the latest team to give Aaron Murray a shot, planning to sign the former fifth-round draft pick, per Ian Rapoport of NFL.com (on Twitter).
Murray spent last season on the Eagles’ practice squad, following offensive coordinator Doug Pederson from Kansas City to Philadelphia. Murray could not make the Chiefs’ roster out of training camp last year in a crowded competition that saw Nick Foles bump each previous backup-quarterback candidate down a peg.
Los Angeles has two QBs under contract presently, with Sean Mannion being behind Jared Goff. Case Keenum is a UFA. A Georgia product, Murray has yet to throw an NFL pass despite entering his fourth NFL offseason. He worked out for the Jets and Panthers in January after the Eagles did not retain him via reserve/futures deal.
This guy wins games, let him play.
