Coty Sensabaugh to Rams: Latest Contract Details, Comments and Reaction

The Los Angeles Rams are signing cornerback Coty Sensabaugh, Tom Pelissero of USA Today reported Monday. Ian Rapoport of NFL.com confirmed the news. 

Sensabaugh spent his first four seasons with the Tennessee Titans. He started a career-high 15 games last season and registered two interceptions, including a pick-six.

The deal is reportedly worth "nearly" $15 million over three years and could be worth up to $19 million, per Rand Getlin of NFL Network.  

The Rams lost Janoris Jenkins to the New York Giants in free agency last week and had an immediate void to fill alongside Trumaine Johnson and E.J. Gaines. 

Sensabaugh’s deal is worth less than a third of the five-year, $62.5 million deal Jenkins received from the Giants, per Spotrac. 

Jenkins was ranked the No. 1 free-agent cornerback by Dallas Robinson of Pro Football Rumors and is now the seventh-highest paid at the position, per Spotrac. That figure was simply too high for Los Angeles.

The Rams ranked 23rd in passing defense last year but gave up the seventh-fewest passing touchdowns with 21. 

In an NFC West where they’ll battle MVP-caliber quarterbacks in Russell Wilson and Carson Palmer twice a year, they were smart to quickly fill their void in the secondary.
