2025 Projections
2025 Fantasy Outlook
Thrust into a starting role around the midpoint of last season, Speights turned in 67 tackles and two pass defenses over his 17 games at inside linebacker. Christian Rozeboom, who started alongside Speights, signed with Carolina in the offseason, but the Rams re-signed Troy Reeder to go along with fifth-round draft pick Chris Paul and free-agent signing Nate Landman. Speights enters the 2025 campaign as a likely starter, but Paul's progression may keep Speights from reaching the same heights of his surprising 2024. Read Past Outlooks
Uptick in production
Speights recorded 85 tackles (45 solo) and a pass defensed in 16 games during 2025.
ANALYSIS
Despite playing in one fewer game than his rookie year in 2024, Speights saw significantly more action on the field this season, recording 667 snaps. Speights did deal with a high ankle sprain that cost him one game and kept him off and on the injury report for the latter half of the season, or he may have had an even more robust increase to his performance. This coincided with a merely modest gain in his tackle totals year-to-year, and Speights will look to continue his positive trend alongside Nate Landman as the likely starting inside linebackers for the Rams in 2026.

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Lock to make 53-man roster
Rams general manager Les Snead said Saturday that Speights will make the 53-man roster and be active on game days, per Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic.
ANALYSIS
Speights made a strong impression during training camp after signing with the Rams in May as an undrafted free agent out of LSU. Not only has he locked up a roster spot, it looks like the inside linebacker is poised to see meaningful playing time. The Rams also informed starting inside linebacker Ernest Jones that he's on the trade block, and Speights would be a leading candidate to fill the playing time void should Jones be traded.
