Rams FA DB David Long Jr. Signing with Raiders

A third-round pick out of Michigan in 2019, David Long Jr. earned himself a Super Bowl ring during his time with the Los Angeles Rams.

Los Angeles Rams free-agent cornerback David Long Jr. has had to play the waiting game a bit at the start of free agency, but he's now found a new home.

Long Jr. is signing a one-year deal with the Las Vegas Raiders, per reports from TheScore's NFL insider Jordan Schultz.

Long Jr., not to be confused with Miami Dolphins linebacker David Long Jr., now sees his four-year career with the Rams come to an end. A third-round pick by LA out of Michigan in 2019, Long Jr. earned himself a Super Bowl ring after recording four tackles in the Rams' 23-20 win over the Cincinnati Bengals in Super Bowl LVI.

The highlight of his LA career came in the NFC Wild Card just a few weeks prior to the Super Bowl. In a dominant 34-11 win over the Arizona Cardinals, Long Jr. had a rare three-yard pick-six in the second quarter that put the Rams up 21-0. They never looked back after that.

His first-career interception came earlier that season during a 34-14 win over the Chicago Bears in Week 1.

Overall, Long Jr. finishes his Rams career with 78 total tackles, two interceptions (including postseason), seven passes defended and one touchdown.
