Slowly but surely, the Los Angeles Rams are working toward signing their entire 2023 draft class. It was a massive class with 14 players in total, so it’s taking some time. But on Friday, they agreed to terms with another rookie.
According to his agency, Tre’Vius Hodges-Tomlinson has agreed to terms with the Rams on his rookie contract. It will be a four-year deal and will be for an estimated $4.04 million in total value, according to Spotrac.
Hodges-Tomlinson was selected by the Rams with the 182nd overall pick in the sixth round. He was the Jim Thorpe Award winner last season as the nation’s best defensive back, helping TCU reach the national championship game where they lost to the Georgia Bulldogs.

Hodges-Tomlinson will compete for snaps as a rookie, likely in the slot as a dime defender. He’s undersized at just 5-foot-8 and 178 pounds, but he has terrific ball skills and coverage ability.
The Rams have now signed 10 of their 14 draft picks this year, with Byron Young, Kobie Turner, Zach Evans and Ochaun Mathis being the four rookies left without a contract.
