Ex-Ram 'Bowling Ball' Keenan Lands with Raiders
8 Sep
Summary
- Tim Keenan III signed with the Las Vegas Raiders practice squad.
- The Rams will face the Raiders in Week 7, offering Keenan revenge.
- Keenan, a former seventh-round pick, was released by the Rams.

The Los Angeles Rams may face a familiar face this coming season as defensive tackle Tim Keenan III was signed to the Las Vegas Raiders' practice squad on September 7, 2026. This move comes as the Rams are scheduled to face the Raiders in Las Vegas during Week 7 of the 2026 regular season, potentially giving Keenan a chance for retribution.
Keenan, 23, was originally a seventh-round pick by the Rams in the 2026 NFL Draft. Listed at 6-foot-2 and 327 pounds, his physical attributes and playing style were deemed a better fit for traditional 3-4 defensive fronts. During his time at Alabama, he was a reliable nose tackle.
The Rams' interior defensive line features Poona Ford and Ty Hamilton at nose tackle, with Aaron Donald also returning to the unit alongside Kobie Turner and Braden Fiske.
