Safety Kam Curl<\/a> was one of the Rams<\/a>\u2019 top defensive players last season, a consistent tackler who made several game-turning plays.<\/p>\n

On Friday, the Rams and Curl agreed to terms on a three-year extension, people with knowledge of the situation said. The people requested anonymity because the deal has not been announced, but it includes about $24 million in guarantees.<\/p>\n

Curl, who will turn 27 this month, made 122 tackles, intercepted two passes, had two sacks and forced a fumble last season. In the NFC divisional round against the Chicago Bears<\/a>, he intercepted a pass in overtime to set up the winning field goal.<\/p>\n

Re-signing Curl, who began his career with the Washington Commanders before signing with the Rams in 2024, is the third major move the Rams made to their secondary since January.<\/p>\n

On Jan. 1, the Rams signed safety Quentin Lake<\/a> to a three-year extension that included $25.5 million in guarantees, according to Overthecap.com<\/a>. The Rams are continuing to work to finalize terms on this week\u2019s blockbuster trade for Kansas City cornerback Trent McDuffie<\/a>, a 2023 All-Pro.<\/p>\n

The Rams on Thursday agreed to terms with veteran tight end Tyler Higbee<\/a>, and last month re-signed offensive tackle David Quessenberry.<\/p>\n

Quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo and cornerbacks Cobie Durant and Roger McCreary are pending free agents. The free-agent negotiation period begins Monday at 9 a.m. PDT.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Safety Kam Curl was one of the Rams\u2019 top defensive players last season, a consistent tackler who made…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":796696,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2079],"tags":[7104,21528,2377,7,9156,26857,30342,1014,58,2444,2611,16039,6,111855,4042,5095,29207,424,5866,27447,4638],"class_list":["post-796695","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-los-angeles-rams","tag-blockbuster-trade","tag-curl","tag-deal","tag-football","tag-guarantee","tag-kam-curl","tag-knowledge","tag-los-angeles","tag-los-angeles-rams","tag-losangeles","tag-losangelesrams","tag-month","tag-nfl","tag-offensive-tackle-david-quessenberry","tag-pass","tag-people","tag-ram","tag-rams","tag-term","tag-three-year-extension","tag-thursday"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/116183555507678464","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/796695","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=796695"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/796695\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/796696"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=796695"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=796695"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=796695"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
