Sep 29, 2024; Chicago, Illinois, USA; Los Angeles Rams offensive tackle Alaric Jackson (77) in a game against the Chicago Bears at Soldier Field. Mandatory Credit: David Banks-Imagn Images Los Angeles Rams left tackle Alaric Jackson is dealing with blood clots for the second time since 2022, NFL Network reported on Friday.
While Jackson is expected to play this season, the Rams secured insurance at the position by agreeing to terms with free agent tackle D.J. Humphries on Thursday.
Jackson, 26, followed up the 2022 season in which he played just eight games (six starts) by starting 29 of the Rams' 34 games over the past two campaigns.
Humphries, 31, started 15 games with the Arizona Cardinals in 2023 before sustaining a torn ACL. He joined the Kansas City Chiefs in late November of last season and started two games.
Humphries has started all 100 career games he has played since the Cardinals selected him with the 24th overall pick of the 2015 NFL Draft. He made the Pro Bowl in 2021.
