"The Rams moved to keep one of their core players with them for the future, signing safety Quentin Lake to a three-year contract extension, the team announced Thursday. The deal includes $25.7 million in guarantees, said a person with knowledge of the situation who requested anonymity because the terms were not announced. Lake, a 2022 sixth-round draft pick from UCLA, was in the final year of his rookie contract."
"He has been sidelined for six games because of an elbow injury he suffered against the Seattle Seahawks on Nov. 16. He required surgery and landed on injured reserve, but his window to return to the roster is expected to be opened Thursday. Lake has been a team captain for the last two seasons, and is a key player for a Rams team that is 11-5 entering Sunday's season finale against the Arizona Cardinals at SoFi Stadium."
Quentin Lake received a three-year contract extension from the Rams that includes $25.7 million in guarantees. Lake was a 2022 sixth-round pick from UCLA and was in the final year of his rookie deal. He has been sidelined for six games after sustaining an elbow injury on Nov. 16 and required surgery, but a return to the roster is expected to be possible this week. Lake has served as a team captain for two seasons and has played in 10 games this year with one interception. The extension departs from the Rams' usual practice regarding drafted safeties under coach Sean McVay.
