(East Los Angeles, CA) : At this time of year, most Rams fans are aware that all 32 NFL franchises are team-building and, in a certain sense, competing to be the best for their cities and fan bases.

And as the 2026 season awaits its official start with Training Camps opening in the summer, the Rams already drew considerable attention on June 1st from NFL experts, insiders, media, coaches, players, and Rams fans. This is obviously due to their major trade with the Cleveland Browns, which acquired 5-time First-Team All-Pro Defensive End and edge rusher extraordinaire Myles Garrett. In exchange, they traded away the highly popular and talented outside linebacker Jared Verse and three future draft picks.

This has definitely created a strong, positive "buzz" that fans will be discussing as the Rams prepare for their official training camp, starting in mid-to-late July. Learn more about this significant Myles Garrett move in the team's official press release.
