Rams Sign LB Jachai Polite To Practice Squad

The Rams announced on Wednesday they have signed LB Jachai Polite to their practice squad. 

Here’s an updated look at Los Angeles’ practice squad: 

1. QB John Wolford
2. RB John Kelly
3. TE Kendall Blanton
4. TE Chandler Brewer
5. OL Jeremiah Kolone
6. DB Donte Deayon
7. S Jake Gervase
8. DE Landis Durham
9. DT Marquise Copeland
10. LB Jachai Polite

Polite, 21, was selected with the No. 68 overall pick in the third round by the Jets. He signed a four-year, $4,218,191 contract that includes a $1,118,194 signing bonus with the Jets. 

However, New York waived Polite coming out of the preseason and he later signed on to the Seahawks’ practice squad. Seattle released him a couple of days ago.

Polite struggled during the pre-draft process, which led to him falling to the third round, even though he was considered to be one of the top edge rusher prospects last year.

During his three-year college career at Florida, Polite recorded 78 tackles, 15 sacks, eight forced fumbles, and four pass defenses.
