The Los Angeles Rams finished their regular season with a 12-5 record and made the postseason as the fifth seed in the NFC.
Sean McVay’s squad went on to beat the Carolina Panthers 34-31 at Bank of America Stadium and the Chicago Bears 20-17 before falling to the eventual Super Bowl champion Seattle Seahawks in the NFC Championship game.
While Los Angeles didn’t hoist the Lombardi Trophy, some of their players still deserve recognition for their postseason accomplishments, which is why Pro Football Focus’ Thomas Valentine put three Rams on their 2025 All-Playoff Team.
Let’s take a look at which Rams made the cut and Valentine’s reason for the choices.
WR Puka Nacua – 86.0
“Puka Nacua was the highest-graded receiver in the regular season, earning a 96.3 PFF grade while catching a league-high 129 passes for 1,715 yards and 10 touchdowns,” Valentine wrote. “That dominance continued into the postseason. Nacua was essentially the triple crown winner in the playoffs, leading all receivers in catches (24), receiving yards (332) and receiving touchdowns in three games, and his 86.0 PFF grade was third among wideouts.

“Nacua garnered at least 10 targets in all three postseason games and compiled a 91.5 PFF grade against the Seahawks in the NFC Championship Game, hauling in nine of 14 passes for 165 yards and a touchdown. The former BYU receiver has made the jump from a very good receiver to one of the NFL’s elite in 2025.”
S Kamren Kinchens – 84.3
“Tied with Woodson with an 84.3 PFF grade, the Rams’ Kamren Kinchens had a strong postseason and has a growing reputation on one of the NFL’s top defenses,” Valentine wrote. “Kinchens accumulated 11 tackles across three postseason games, adding five stops, and his 88.8 PFF tackling grade was second at the position.
“Kinchens really shone in coverage, though. The former third-round pick was targeted five times, allowing three receptions for 17 yards while notching a pass breakup. His 78.6 PFF coverage grade led all safeties in the postseason.”
K Harrison Mevis – 82.0
“Harrison Mevis has fast become a reliable source of points after winning the job as the Rams’ kicker back in Week 11,” Valentine wrote. “Mevis made all 39 extra point attempts in the regular season and finished 12-of-13 on field goal attempts, with the lone miss coming against the Seahawks in Week 16.
“Mevis was money in the playoffs, converting on 9-of-9 extra points and 6-of-6 field goals. Four of Mevis’ field goal conversions came between 40-49 yards, the most of any kicker in the postseason, and the former Missouri Tiger made his lone field goal of over 50 yards. His 82.0 PFF field goal grade led the postseason.”
