Dealing with hamstring injury
Rozeboom suffered a hamstring injury in Sunday's overtime win over the Falcons and is uncertain for next Monday night's game against the 49ers, Joe Person of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Rozeboom played his normal allotment of snaps against Atlanta, logging 10 tackles (two solo) on 82 percent of the defensive plays against the Falcons. If Rozeboom is unable to play Monday night, Claudin Cherelus and Bam Martin-Scott would be candidates to see increased action at linebacker for Carolina.

Continues producing in Week 11
Rozeboom recorded 10 total tackles (two solo) in Sunday's 30-27 overtime win over the Falcons.
ANALYSIS
Rozeboom tied Claudin Cherelus as Carolina's second-leading tackler and has now recorded double-digit stops in three of his last four games following Sunday's overtime win. The first-year Panther has tallied a team-leading 91 total tackles, one pass defended and one forced fumble over 11 appearances. He's expected to remain Carolina's top tackler and a viable IDP option in the Week 12 matchup against the 49ers.
Nov 11, 2025
Just four stops in Week 10 loss
Rozeboom tallied four tackles (two solo) during the Panthers' 17-7 loss to the Saints on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Rozeboom's streak of double-digit tackles in a game ended at two Sunday, and his four stops matched a season low from Week 4 against the Patriots. The fifth-year pro is up to 81 combined tackles through 10 regular-season games, which leads the Panthers and is tied with Robert Spillane and Jamien Sherwood for 10th most in the NFL.
Nov 4, 2025
Career-high 15 tackles in win
Rozeboom recorded 15 tackles (seven solo) in the Panthers' win over the Packers on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
One week after posting a season-high 12 tackles in the Panthers' Week 8 loss to the Bills, Rozeboom notched a career-high 15 stops against Green Bay on just 74 percent of the defensive snaps. Rozeboom has started all nine games this season, recording 77 tackles (39 solo) and one pass breakup on 88 percent of the defensive snaps. He's eighth in the NFL with his 77 tackles.
Oct 28, 2025
Season-high tackles in Week 8 loss
Rozeboom racked up 12 tackles (seven solo) and one pass defensed during Carolina's loss to the Bills on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Rozeboom played 92 percent of defensive snaps during Sunday's loss to Buffalo, his first time above the 85-percent threshold since Week 4. The veteran linebacker has only tallied less that five tackles once across eight regular-season appearances so far, providing him a solid fantasy floor in IDP formats. Next on deck for the Panthers is a road matchup against Green Bay in Week 9.
Oct 21, 2025
Ties for team lead in stops Sunday
Rozeboom tallied seven tackles (two solo) in Sunday's 13-6 win over the Jets.
ANALYSIS
Rozeboom was one of three Panthers with exactly seven tackles in the victory. It was the fifth time in seven games this season that Rozeboom has reached at least that number of tackles. On the campaign, the veteran linebacker has tallied 50 stops.
Oct 14, 2025
Leading tackler in win
Rozeboom logged six tackles (three solo) in the Panthers' win over the Cowboys on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Rozeboom led Carolina in tackles Sunday's victory. The 28-year-old has now racked up 43 tackles (23 solo) across his first six appearances of the season. He will look to build on this solid performance and keep producing in the Week 7 matchup versus the Jets.
Oct 7, 2025
Leading tackler in win
Rozeboom totaled nine tackles (five solo) during the Panthers' win versus the Dolphins on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Rozeboom was the team's leading tackler during the victory. The 28-year-old has gotten off to a strong start this season, as he's racked up at least seven tackles in four of his first five outings. He'll look to maintain this level of production in the team's Week 6 matchup versus the Cowboys.
Sep 30, 2025
Four tackles in defeat
Rozeboom recorded four tackles (one solo) in the Panthers' loss to the Patriots on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Rozeboom has logged 100 percent of the Panthers' defensive snaps through four games and has piled up 28 tackles (15 solo), though he's recorded nothing else in the box score.
Sep 23, 2025
Leads Carolina with nine tackles
Rozeboom registered nine tackles (six solo) during the Panthers' 30-0 win over the Falcons on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Rozeboom played every single defensive snap for a third consecutive game and finished tied with Falcons defenders Xavier Watts and Kaden Elliss for most tackles in Sunday's game. Rozeboom is up to 24 tackles on the season and is on track to crack 100-plus tackles for a second consecutive year.
Sep 10, 2025
Notches eight stops Week 1
Rozeboom registered eight tackles (seven solo) Sunday in a loss to the Jaguars.
ANALYSIS
Rozeboom's eight stops were good for second on Carolina. That output was in line with his production last season, when he averaged 7.9 tackles over 17 regular-season games with the Rams. Rozeboom finished last year with a career-best 135 stops, then signed a one-year deal with the Panthers in mid-March.
Mar 12, 2025
Inks deal with Carolina
Rozeboom signed a one-year deal with the Panthers on Wednesday, Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Rozeboom thrived with increased playing time for the Rams in 2024, recording a career-high 135 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, and four passes defended while playing a career-high 785 defensive snaps over 17 regular-season appearances (11 starts). He's the fourth defender the Panthers have added in free agency, joining safety Tre'von Moehrig, defensive end Patrick Jones, and defensive tackles Bobby Brown and Tershawn Wharton. Expect Rozeboom to serve as one of Carolina's top inside linebackers in 2025, potentially serving as the signal-caller for the team's revamped defense.
Jan 31, 2025
Hits triple digits in tackles
Rozeboom recorded 135 tackles (69 solo), 1.0 sacks, an interception and four passes defended during the 2024 regular season.
ANALYSIS
Despite finishing 17th out of all qualifying players with 135 tackles, Rozeboom's actual performance at linebacker was more of a mixed bag, as he struggled with missed tackles and only managed a single sack over 785 snaps on defense. An unrestricted free agent, Rozeboom may have to find a new home in the offseason while the Rams look to add a playmaker alongside Omar Speights at inside linebacker.
Dec 23, 2024
Eight tackles against Jets
Rozeboom registered eight tackles (three solo) during the Rams' 19-9 win over the Jets on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Rozeboom played 60 defensive snaps Sunday for the second time of the regular season, and he finished as the Rams' second-leading tackler behind Jaylen McCollough (nine). Rozeboom has recorded at least eight combined tackles in six straight games, and he's up to 128 tackles (66 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and four pass defenses (one interception) across 15 regular-season games.
Dec 13, 2024
Records first sack of career
Rozeboom recorded nine tackles (seven solo) and 1.0 sacks during Thursday's 12-6 victory against the 49ers.
ANALYSIS
Along with leading the team in tackles, Rozeboom earned the first sack of his five-year career, bringing down Brock Purdy on the final play of the game. Rozeboom now sits with 120 tackles (63 solo) on the year, both career highs, and will have another chance to rack up tackles against Aaron Rodgers and the Jets in Week 16.
Dec 9, 2024
Leads team in tackles
Rozeboom recorded eight tackles (three solo) during Sunday's 44-42 victory against the Bills.
ANALYSIS
Outside of Rozeboom and Darius Williams, no Ram recorded more than four tackles. It was a fairly miserable overall performance for the Rams' defense, as Josh Allen rang up six total touchdowns and the Rams failed to record a sack or a turnover. An injury-riddled San Francisco offense is a much more tantalizing prospect for Rozeboom and the Rams' defense in Week 15.
Dec 2, 2024
Back-to-back weeks with 12 tackles
Rozeboom recorded 12 tackles (seven solo) including a tackle for loss, as well as a pass defended during Sunday's 21-14 victory against the Saints.
ANALYSIS
Rozeboom tied his career-high set last week with 12 tackles, and tacked on his fourth pass defended of the season for good measure. On the year, Rozeboom cracked the triple digit mark for tackles, with 103 total tackles (53 solo) so far during the 2024 campaign. An imposing task is on hand for Week 14, with the dynamic Josh Allen and the Bills up next.
Nov 25, 2024
Career-high 12 tackles in defeat
Rozeboom recorded 12 tackles (seven solo) including a tackle for loss during Sunday's 37-20 loss to the Eagles.
ANALYSIS
While a dreadful day overall for the Rams defense, it was a banner day for the veteran linebacker, who notched his third start with double-digit tackles out of his last four, and fifth on the season. The continued volume of tackles should keep Rozeboom on the IDP radar as the Rams travel to New Orleans in Week 13.
Nov 18, 2024
Makes plays vs. Patriots
Rozeboom recorded 11 total tackles (four solo) in Sunday's 28-22 win over the Patriots.
ANALYSIS
The South Dakota State product tallied 10-or-more stops for the fourth time this season Sunday, having now recorded 79 total tackles and three passes defended, including one interception, through the Rams' first 10 games. Rozeboom trails just Quentin Lake on the Rams' defense in total tackles, and he's expected to continue being a viable IDP option as the Eagles travel to Los Angeles in Week 12.
Nov 11, 2024
Active Monday night
Rozeboom (neck) is active for Monday Night Football against the Dolphins, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
The starting inside linebacker practiced in full Thursday and Friday before missing Saturday's session, though Los Angeles coach Sean McVay told reporters that Rozeboom was "feeling good." The fourth-year pro has 65 tackles (33 solo) across eight games this season. His career-high in tackles is 79, set last year.
Nov 10, 2024
Dealing with neck injury
Rozeboom (neck) was a limited participant in Saturday's practice and is listed as questionable for Monday's game against the Dolphins, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports.
ANALYSIS
Rozeboom was a full practice participant Thursday and Friday, but he popped up on Saturday's injury report due to neck soreness. Despite his late addition to the injury report, head coach Sean McVay told reporters Saturday that Rozeboom is "feeling good" and should be good to go for Monday's contest.
Nov 4, 2024
Leads team in tackles
Rozeboom recorded 11 tackles (eight solo) and two tackles for loss during Sunday's 26-20 overtime victory against the Seahawks.
ANALYSIS
The first of Rozeboom's two tackles for loss occurred after a botched snap by Geno Smith, which allowed Rozeboom to stop Kenneth Walker for a total loss of 21 yards on the play. Rozeboom's eleven tackles tied a season high, and he'll look to keep the pressure on against Tua Tagovailoa and the Dolphins in Week 10.
Oct 7, 2024
Productive despite loss
Rozeboom tallied eight tackles (three solo) in the Ram's loss Sunday to the Packers.
ANALYSIS
Rozeboom tied Kamren Curl for most tackles recorded on the team during Sunday's loss. Rozeboom has now accumulated 42 tackles (21 solo) across five games played this season.
Sep 30, 2024
Logs 11 tackles in loss
Rozeboom compiled 11 tackles (six solo) during the Rams' 24-18 loss to the Bears on Sunday.
ANALYSIS
Rozeboom had a productive outing despite the loss as he managed to lead the team in tackles. The 27-year-old has now racked up nine or more tackles in three of his first four appearances this season.
Sep 24, 2024
Logs 10 stops in win
Rozeboom recorded 10 tackles (four solo) during Sunday's 27-24 win versus the 49ers.
ANALYSIS
The Rams saw a heavy dose of the run in Week 3 against their divisional rival, opening up a bunch of tackle chances for Rozeboom. Consequently, he tied for the team lead in that category. If he can keep up his current pace of production, he's on track for the first 100-tackle season of his career.
Sep 13, 2024
Ready to rock
Rozeboom (hip) has no injury designation ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Cardinals, Josh Weinfuss of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Rozeboom began the Rams' week of practice with back-to-back limited sessions, but after practicing in full Friday, he appears to have moved past his hip injury. The South Dakota State product will look to build on an impressive Week 1 showing, in which he logged nine total tackles on 45 defensive snaps.
Sep 11, 2024
Limited in practice Wednesday
Rozeboom (hip) was a limited participant in the Rams' practice Wednesday, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.
ANALYSIS
Rozeboom racked up nine tackles (four solo) during the team's overtime loss to the Lions but is now dealing with a hip injury. Omar Speights and Eli Neal will likely see expanded roles Sunday versus the Cardinals.
Sep 9, 2024
Records nine tackles in loss
Rozeboom finished with nine tackles (four solo) in the Rams' 26-20 loss to the Lions on Sunday night.
ANALYSIS
It was a strong start to the season for the 2020 undrafted free agent who found a role with the Los Angeles defense a year ago. During the 2023 regular season, Rozeboom recorded 79 tackles, four passes defensed and an interception.
Mar 15, 2024
Brought back by L.A.
The Rams re-signed Rozeboom on a one-year deal Friday, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
According to Rodrigue, Rozeboom had a couple offers from other teams, but he ultimately chose to return to Los Angeles for his fourth season with the team. The South Dakota State product had the best season of his career in 2023, racking up 79 total tackles and four passes defended, including one interception, in 17 regular-season outings. Expect Rozeboom to have the opportunity to compete for a starting inside linebacker spot once again this offseason.
Feb 4, 2024
Breaks through in third year
Rozeboom finished the 2023 regular season with 79 tackles (48 solo), four passes defended and an interception over 17 games played.
ANALYSIS
After two years of very limited usage outside of special teams, the Rams finally promoted Rozeboom to a starter alongside Ernest Jones to replace the massive production of Bobby Wagner, who returned to Seattle in the offseason. Rozeboom produced modest numbers as a starter, in part due to his usage never peaking above 75 percent of the snaps in any game on the year. Rozeboom is a restricted free agent, and the Rams may give Rozeboom another shot to prove his capability as a starter if the price is right.
Oct 24, 2023
Effective in loss
Rozeboom compiled six tackles (four solo) and defended a pass in Sunday's 24-17 loss to the Steelers.
ANALYSIS
Rozeboom's breakout season continues as he's now recorded five or more tackles in all but one game this season. The 26-year-old already has a career high 36 tackles (24 solo) and will look to increase those numbers when the Rams take on the Cowboys this week.
Oct 17, 2023
Grabs first career interception
Rozeboom recorded three tackles (three solo) and an interception in Sunday's 26-9 win versus Arizona.
ANALYSIS
Deep in Rams territory with the Cardinals threatening to tie the game with a touchdown early in the fourth quarter, Rozeboom ran underneath a short pass over the middle intended for Zach Ertz to flip the momentum back towards his squad. He'll look to add onto his breakout season versus Pittsburgh in Week 7.
Oct 13, 2023
Cleared for Week 6
Rozeboom (thigh) has the green light to play in Sunday's game against the Cardinals, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
Rozeboom started the week as a DNP then logged a limited workload Thursday followed by a full session Friday. Barring any setbacks, he is set to take on his usual workload at inside linebacker.
Oct 12, 2023
Practices Thursday
Rozeboom (thigh) was a limited participant in practice Thursday after missing Wednesday's session, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The linebacker dealt with a neck injury last week but ultimately played in the Rams' loss to the Eagles. Rozeboom will have one more practice to ramp up before Los Angeles' Week 6 game against Arizona on Sunday. The fourth-year pro has 27 tackles in five games, including one start, this season.
Oct 11, 2023
Dealing with thigh injury
Rozeboom (thigh) did not participate at the Rams' practice Wednesday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
ANALYSIS
Rozeboom was able to play in Week 5 versus the Eagles after dealing with a neck injury during the week, but he has now popped up on the injury report again with a thigh issue. The linebacker will have two more practice sessions to return to the field before Sunday's contest with Arizona.
Oct 5, 2023
Practices Thursday
Rozeboom (neck) was a limited participant in practice Thursday after missing Wednesday's session, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
ANALYSIS
The linebacker has played in all four games this season, started one and contributed 22 tackles. Rozeboom will have one more chance to practice again before the Rams face the Eagles on Sunday.
Oct 4, 2023
Misses practice Wednesday
Rozeboom (neck) was a non-participant at the Rams' practice Wednesday, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.
ANALYSIS
Rozeboom appeared on the injury report Wednesday, missing the team's first practice session of the week with an apparent neck issue. The linebacker will look to return to the practice field before the end of the week to clear up his status for Sunday's matchup with Philadelphia.
Sep 12, 2023
Logs six tackles in win
Rozeboom recorded six tackles (three solo) in Sunday's season opening victory over the Seahawks.
ANALYSIS
Rozeboom was on the field for 32 defensive plays (70 percent), as well as 14 on special teams (50%). He primarily played a depth role for the Rams in 2022, so he is taking advantage of his new starting job so far this season. The inside linebacker will look to stay active in Week 2 when the 49ers come to LA.
Dec 21, 2021
Activated off COVID-19 list
The Rams activated Rozeboom off the reserve/COVID-19 list Tuesday.
ANALYSIS
Rozeboom has yet to play a defensive snap all season and although he will be available to play Tuesday against the Seahawks, he'll likely only play on special teams. The linebacker will look to provide a depth role behind Ernest Jones in Week 15.
Dec 17, 2021
Placed on COVID-19 list
Rozeboom (undisclosed) was placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Thursday.
ANALYSIS
Rozeboom was one of five Rams players to land in COVID-19 protocols Thursday. The 6-foot-2 linebacker hasn't played a single defensive snap this season, so his potential absence shouldn't impact Los Angeles' defensive gameplan.
