  • Rams' Quentin Lake: Develops into starting role

    Lake logged 53 tackles (42 solo), six passes defended and recovered a fumble during the 2023 regular season over 14 games played.

    Through the first half of the 2023 season, Lake looked like he was going to continue his role from his rookie year as a special teams regular with scant usage on defense, but he replaced Russ Yeast as a starter after a Week 10 bye and performed well despite suffering a hamstring injury that cost him three games. With Jordan Fuller an unrestricted free agent, Lake will likely retain his starting role in 2024 barring a splash by the Rams in the draft or free agency.

  • Rams' Quentin Lake: Solid outing in loss

    Lake recorded five total tackles (three solo) in Sunday's 26-25 win over the Giants.

    The second-year pro made just the fourth start of his career Sunday, taking Los Angeles' starting free safety duties from John Johnson since returning from injury in Week 15. Lake has now made five-or-more tackles in each of his last five outings as well, bringing his season total up to 50 tackles. Expect Lake to continue starting in the Rams' secondary in their Week 18 game against the 49ers.

  • Rams' Quentin Lake: Logs estimated full practice

    The Rams estimated Lake to be a full practice participant Wednesday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

    The team held a "jog-through" Wednesday, so Lake didn't handle the rigors of a regular practice session. Nonetheless, the fact that he was estimated as a full participant bodes well for the safety's chances of returning from a three-game absence to face Washington in Week 15. Prior to him getting hurt, Lake's role had been steadily increasing, and he logged 100 percent of the Rams' defensive snaps for the first time this season against Seattle in Week 11.

  • Rams' Quentin Lake: Could return against Commanders

    Head coach Sean McVay noted Monday that he expects Lake (hamstring) back this week, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

    Lake has missed the last three games after he sustained a hamstring injury in Week 11 against the Seahawks. He was able to practice in a limited fashion last week but ultimately did not suit up in Sunday's 37-31 OT loss to the Ravens. If Lake is able to progress in his practice participation this week, he'll resume his starting spot at free safety alongside strong safety Jordan Fuller.

  • Rams' Quentin Lake: Remains sidelined

    Lake (hamstring) is inactive Sunday against the Ravens, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

    Lake was expected to return in Week 14 after missing the team's previous two games, but ultimately he will not. John Johnson should draw the start again at free safety in place of Lake.

  • Rams' Quentin Lake: Could play Week 14

    Lake (hamstring) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's game against the Ravens, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

    The second-year safety out of UCLA was able to log a limited practice session Thursday after recording a DNP on Wednesday, making it seem as if he could be trending in the right direction to play Sunday. Head coach Sean McVay told reporters Friday that he expects Lake to suit up in Week 14, but the team will be careful with his hamstring issue, per Rodrigue. Even if Lake can go Sunday, John Johnson will likely see an uptick in snaps in the Rams' secondary.

  • Rams' Quentin Lake: Practices Thursday

    Lake (hamstring) was a limited participant in practice Thursday after missing Wednesday's session, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

    It's a step in the right direction for the starting free safety ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Ravens. Lake has missed the last two games with his injury. The second-year pro has 33 tackles, three passes defensed and a fumble recovery in 2023.

  • Rams' Quentin Lake: Misses practice Wednesday

    Lake (hamstring) was a nonparticipant at the Rams' "jog-through" practice Wednesday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

    Lake has been unavailable for the team's last two games while nursing a hamstring injury and he remained sidelined at the first estimated practice session of the week. The safety will likely need to log at least a limited session before the end of the week if he's going to return to the field for Sunday's matchup with the Ravens.

  • Rams' Quentin Lake: Nearing return

    Lake (hamstring) could return to the field in Week 14 versus the Ravens, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

    Lake is considered to be "trending up" from his hamstring injury and is likely to be back for Week 15, if not Sunday against Baltimore. The safety has missed the last two contests since getting hurt in the team's Week 11 win over Seattle, and his return to the field would provide the team with a major boost to its secondary ahead of a tough matchup with the Ravens.

  • Rams' Quentin Lake: Won't play Week 13

    Lake (hamstring) has been ruled out of Sunday's game versus Cleveland, Scott Petrak of the Elyria Chronicle-Telegram reports.

    Lake did not practice at all during Week 13 prep due to a hamstring injury. The issue also caused the second-year safety to miss Week 12 against Arizona. John Johnson saw more work against the Cardinals and will likely get an extended opportunity against the Browns this Sunday as well.

  • Rams' Quentin Lake: Doesn't practice Wednesday

    Lake (hamstring) didn't practice Wednesday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

    Lake sat out practice once again after missing last week's win over Arizona due to a hamstring injury. The 24-year-old is now in danger of missing his second straight game, and if he ends up being unable to play vs. Cleveland Sunday, John Johnson should start at safety.

  • Rams' Quentin Lake: Week 13 in doubt

    Lake (hamstring) is not trending in the right direction for the Rams' Week 13 matchup with the Browns, Greg Beacham of the Associated Press reports.

    Head Coach Sean McVay does not sound optimistic regarding Lake's chances of playing, but the safety has not officially been ruled out. More clarity will come as the week progresses. If he indeed cannot play, John Johnson and Russ Yeast would presumably be in line for bigger workloads.

  • Rams' Quentin Lake: Missing Week 12

    Lake (hamstring) has been ruled out ahead of Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.

    According to head coach Sean McVay, Lake had been experiencing soreness in his hamstring after the Rams' Week 11 win over the Seahawks, and he's since been ruled out for Sunday's contest. With Lake missing time, John Johnson and Russ Yeast will likely see more time in Los Angeles' secondary.
