NFL roster cuts, trade rumors tracker: Teams have until 1 PM PT to submit final rosters

What’s happening and how could it impact the Rams?

By Kenneth Arthur@KennethArthuRS Updated Aug 30, 2022, 1:47pm CDT

NFL: Minnesota Vikings at Denver Broncos

If the L.A. Rams have any questions at all about Riley Dixon, their options just got a little better on Monday. The Titans and Broncos both released prominent punters on Monday, but that’s not all the news that’s happened or will happen over the course of the day.

The Rams could still want to add outside help for the offensive line, the outside linebackers, and the running backs group headed into the season. Les Snead is one of the most active GMs in the NFL, if not the most active, and that’s help L.A. win a Super Bowl and reach another within the last four years.

So pay attention not only to what the Rams choose to do this week, but what other teams do also. If you see news online that’s not in our tracker yet, feel free to add it in the comments below!

QB Kellen Mond

The #Vikings are waiving QB Kellen Mond, per source.

A third-round pick out of Texas A&M in 2021, Mond had a lot of fans in the pre-draft process. But he struggled in preseason action and Minnesota's new regime traded for Nick Mullens recently. Now, Mond heads to waivers.
