Rams CBs Dominate: Top 2 in NFL Passer Rating Allowed
14 Oct
Summary
- McDuffie and Wallace rank first and second in allowed passer rating.
- Three Rams cornerbacks are in the top 10 for allowed passer rating.
- Rams defense allows second-fewest passing yards this season.

The Los Angeles Rams have significantly upgraded their defensive backfield this season. Cornerbacks Trent McDuffie and Josh Wallace have emerged as a formidable duo, earning the top two spots in the NFL for the lowest passer rating allowed. Wallace, in particular, has excelled, stepping into a larger role due to injuries and displaying impressive versatility by playing both inside and outside.
This exceptional cornerback play is a key factor in the Rams' current defensive success. Alongside Watson, who also ranks highly, Los Angeles features three cornerbacks within the top 10 for allowed passer rating. This collective strength has propelled the Rams' pass defense to rank second in fewest passing yards allowed and fifth in lowest passer rating allowed for the current season, a marked improvement from the previous year.
