Rams draft picks 2020: LA selects LB Clay Johnston with 234th pick

The L.A. Rams have selected LB Clay Johnston with the 234th pick in the NFL draft.

This is at least the third Rams draft pick this year to have a father with an NFL connection: Johnston’s dad Kent is a longtime strength and conditioning coach who was Brett Favre’s best man at his wedding. His son Clay Johnston is a 6’1, 227 pound senior out of Baylor who was having a strong season until a knee injury. He’s now a member of the Rams.
