Trammell, who turns 26 on July 4, has appeared in 24 career games and has recorded 25 punt returns for 183 yards and six kick returns for 101 yards. The 5-foot-10, 185-pound wideout also has six career receptions for 42 yards.

In the Rams’ 17-16 win over the Seattle Seahawks last season in Week 11, Trammell made three receptions for 23 yards and averaged 7.67 yards per reception.

“I thought Austin Trammell did a great job being able to step up in his absence and make some key and critical plays. I’m just so proud of this group,” Rams coach Sean McVay said.

“The grit was on display, the mental toughness, the ability to get stops, the ability to be able to feed off of one another. Man, there’s a lot of things we can learn from offensively.”

Center Jack Anderson was selected in the seventh round of the 2021 draft

As for Anderson, the Jaguars claimed the offensive lineman off waivers from the Indianapolis Colts on June 7. The 6-foot-4, 314-pound center was selected 236th overall by the Buffalo Bills in the seventh round of the 2021 draft out of Texas Tech.

Anderson, who also turns 26 on Oct. 12, has played 15 career games (three starts) in his career with the Bills (2021), Philadelphia Eagles (2021-22), New York Giants (2022-23), and Colts (2023).
