Remember when the Rams won the Super Bowl? It was less than a year ago, but things have spiraled that quickly in Los Angeles.
Star cornerback Jalen Ramsey added to the ongoing Super Bowl hangover early Friday morning by sending out a series of cryptic tweets, seemingly hinting that he could walk away – either from the Rams or the NFL entirely.
“It is what it is! It was what it was! If that’s the end, I went out wit a BANG! Still THAT!” Ramsey tweeted.
He then fired off a series of follow-up tweets, with the first reading: “Seasons switching over, I come through them bih still scorching as if I didn’t notice… the ride.”
“Loyalty is priceless & it’s all I need…. Love All,” he wrote in a third tweet, with a fourth reading: “Shid is so obvious, it defeats the purpose.”
Perhaps Ramsey, 28, was simply eulogizing the 2022 season, which the Rams finished 5-12, the worst winning percentage in NFL history for a prior-year Super Bowl winner. But if it were a sign that he was on his way out of Los Angeles – or the league as a whole – it would be yet another hit for a team that has taken several in recent months.

Quarterback Matthew Stafford missed much of the second half of the season due to a spinal cord injury and also was dealing with tendinitis in his elbow while he was playing. Wide receiver and 2021 Offensive Player of the Year Cooper Kupp suffered a high ankle sprain that sidelined him for eight games. Future Hall of Famer Aaron Donald also suffered a high ankle sprain.
The Rams are also without a first-round pick in 2023 due to their years of wheeling and dealing and are projected to be $9 million over the salary cap in the upcoming season.
They got their championship – and now they are paying the bill.
