Rams UDFA Bailey Stuns Saints, Earns Floyd Comparison

Undrafted rookie Wesley Bailey is making a strong case for a spot on the L.A. Rams' 53-man roster. Bailey delivered a performance against the New Orleans Saints that drew comparisons to former top-10 pick Leonard Floyd. He registered a sack in the first quarter and later forced a crucial fumble at the goal line, preventing the Saints from scoring.

Bailey, who had 15.5 sacks in five college seasons, was not widely projected to make the Rams' roster entering training camp. However, his recent play has impressed coaches, with Sean McVay noting his improvement. His emergence challenges the projected depth chart for edge rushers.

The Rams are evaluating their final roster spots, with Bailey's strong preseason effort making him a notable contender. His continued presence on the field in preseason games suggests he is fighting for a roster spot, while sitting out could indicate he has already secured one.
