Orlando: The Los Angeles Rams have agreed to terms with free-agent defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh on a one-year contract, of reportedly $14 million (Dh51.4 million).
Suh, a five-time Pro Bowl selection, is the latest addition to a defence remade by general manager Les Snead with a frenzy of blockbuster offseason moves, including trades for Pro Bowl cornerbacks Marcus Peters and Aqib Talib. They join a defence that already featured lineman Aaron Donald, the reigning NFL defensive player of the year.
Suh, 31, has 51.5 career sacks, and provides the Rams with a proven run-stopping interior lineman for defensive coordinator Wade Phillips’ 3-4 defence.
Suh might not be the last high-profile addition. The New York Daily News, citing unnamed sources, reported that the Rams were among teams that have inquired about trading for star wide receiver Odell Beckham Jr.
