The Los Angeles Rams have signed former Georgia Bulldog linebacker Natrez Patrick to their active roster ahead of Sunday’s game against the San Francisco 49ers. The Rams have had Natrez Patrick on both their 53-man roster and their practice squad this season.
Patrick has played in 19 career games for Los Angeles. He has recorded one tackle thus far this season.
Additionally, the Los Angeles Rams elevated former University of Georgia safety J.R. Reed from their practice squad to their game day roster. Reed made his NFL debut last week against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
The Rams made the two moves in a series of roster transactions. Additionally, L.A. activated former New England Patriots defensive end Derek Rivers from exemption and restored defensive back Jake Gervase to the practice squad.

Overall, the Los Angeles Rams are 7-3 and are looking to hold off the Seattle Seahawks in the NFC West. Reed and Patrick may help the Rams make the playoffs if they can make impact plays on special teams and on defense.
