Sony Michel News
Sony Michel abruptly retires · Jul 30, 2023
Current Rams running back Sony Michel has announced his retirement.
The former stud runner from Georgia and former first round pick lasted just five years in the NFL with stints in New England, and with both Los Angeles teams. Long on talent, Michel was surprisingly just never able to truly put things together in the NFL, rushing for just over 3,200 yards and scoring just 20 times in the NFL. Michel was a fringe roster player prior to this announcement but this seals his fate as one of the more disappointing rookie picks of the past five seasons.
Sony Michel signs with Rams · Jun 20, 2023
The Rams have signed Sony Michel to a one-year contract
Now 28, it will be Michel's second stint with the Rams who may be looking for a more notable backup to starter Cam Akers. Even should Michel make the Rams' 53-man roster, he doesn't project to be an impact player any longer in any format. He remains unranked on DLF's running back rankings.
