Since moving back to the West Coast in 2016, the Los Angeles Rams have established themselves as one of the most successful NFL teams under general manager Les Snead and head coach Sean McVay.
The Rams have made the playoffs six times during that span, including during the 2021 season when they won their first Super Bowl in Los Angeles.
The Rams have also become a top destination for players, which was evident this past offseason when Davante Adams signed a two-year contract with the team in free agency. Sportico released its annual rankings of the most valuable NFL franchises, which saw the Rams check in at No. 2 behind the Dallas Cowboys:

The Rams are valued at $10.43 billion, which trails only the Cowboys’ $12.8 billion. L.A. was also ranked second during the 2024 season with a $7.79 billion valuation, meaning they have seen a 34% increase over the last year.
The New York Giants are the only other team with a valuation of more than $10 billion, while the New England Patriots ($8.76 billion) and San Francisco 49ers ($8.6 million) round out the top five.
Rams sign McCallan Castles; waive Anthony Torres
The Los Angeles Rams signed tight end McCallan Castles and also waived tight end Anthony Torres with an injury designation after hurting his ankle in Saturday’s preseason opener against the Dallas Cowboys.
Castles gives the Rams another tight end for the preseason but is a long shot to make the team’s initial 53-man roster. He is currently behind Tyler Higbee, Terrance Ferguson, Colby Parkinson and Davis Allen on the depth chart.
As for Torres, he is facing an extended absence and will now go on waivers. If the 25-year-old isn’t claimed, he will likely be placed on injured reserve by the Rams.
Torres signed with the Rams as an undrafted free agent out of Toledo after a six-year college career in which he caught 74 passes for 1,069 yards and 12 touchdowns.
