Dean Connors has given the Los Angeles Rams all they can handle when it comes to filling out their running backs room on NFL roster cutdown day this weekend... his preseason performances have certainly been an encouraging sign of what he could offer this team should he make the final 53-man roster.

STACKED’s take

Positive signalRole

Undrafted Connors impresses in preseason; likely practice squad with path to playing time.

Undrafted rookie RB out of Houston competing for 53-man roster spot with Rams; will not be RB1 or RB2 behind Kyren Williams and Blake Corum, but preseason performances have been encouraging. Led Rams in rushing in preseason finale vs. Chargers with 69 yards on 18 carries; demonstrates quick-twitch cuts, fluidity, vision, patience with blockers, and toughness. Traits align with Sean McVay's preference for explosive plays. If he doesn't make initial 53, he's a strong practice squad candidate with elevation eligibility likely to see run during 2026 season.
