Taylor Rapp Fantasy

Free-agent safety Taylor Rapp signed an undisclosed one-year deal with the Buffalo Bills on Monday, according to a source. Rapp was a former second-round pick by the Los Angeles Rams in 2019, and he also visited with the New England Patriots in free agency before choosing the Bills. The 25-year-old spent his first four seasons in the NFL in LA, racking up 330 tackles (216 solo), 1.5 sacks, eight tackles for loss, five QB hits, nine interceptions (one returned for a touchdown), 23 passes defensed, a forced fumble and three fumble recoveries in 57 games (48 starts). Rapp joins a team that already has safeties Jordan Poyer and Micah Hyde, so he probably won't have a full-time starting role like he did with the Rams.

The New England Patriots are hosting Los Angeles Rams free-agent safety Taylor Rapp on a visit that begins on Thursday, according to a source. The versatile defender could land with the Patriots after spending his first four NFL seasons with the Rams. Rapp had 100 total tackles in his rookie season in 2019 and has had 90-plus total tackles in each of the last two years. In 16 starts last year, the 25-year-old defensive back recorded 92 tackles (58 solo), two interceptions, six passes defensed and a fumble recovery. Moving to a different team this offseason would could afford Rapp of a guaranteed starting spot in 2023.

Los Angeles Rams free safety Taylor Rapp (concussion), who missed all three playoff games due to a concussion, was able to practice in full on Friday and has a chance to return for the Super Bowl against the Cincinnati Bengals. Rapp was limited in practice on Wednesday and Friday and appears to have cleared the league's concussion protocol. As long as he doesn't suffer a setback in practice next week, he should be available for the big game, which is great news for the Rams secondary. The 24-year-old could have his snaps limited in the Super Bowl, though, as veteran safety Eric Weddle has done a great job filling in for him and even led the team in tackles in the NFC Championship win over the San Francisco 49ers.
