Robert Rochell started his NFL career with the Los Angeles Rams and he’s available again
Robert Rochell was recently released by the Kansas City Chiefs making Rochell a free agent, and he should have some options, but maybe he’d like to rejoin the team that drafted him back in the 2021 NFL Draft, the Los Angeles Rams.

Rochell was taken in the fourth round by the Rams, and though he was hurt during the Rams’ Super Bowl winning season, Rochell was still on the team before being released in August of ‘23.
Rochell has since moved around from the Seattle Seahawks, Carolina Panthers, Green Bay Packers and most recently the Chiefs.
Rochell has 48 games of NFL experience to go along with 22 solo tackles, three fumble recoveries, and one interception. If a team needs a veteran body in their defensive back room, then Rochell could be the perfect candidate.
Robert Rochell is a very good pick. Another guy I tabbed for the Rams in Snead’s Snacks if you were following along. pic.twitter.com/vP92cDCnwU

If the Rams aren’t able to add Jalen Ramsey, then Rochell may be a solid addition.
Of course, who knows the amount of money Rochell could command, and who knows how in a hurry he is to sign with another team as he could wait for the season to get closer before making a decision.
Same thing for the Rams as they may want to see if something does happen with Ramsey, and they may want to see how their secondary looks in training camp before rushing into adding more players.
File this one away in the “Food for thought Category” in the NFL free agency zone.
