The Rams aren’t necessarily among the NFL teams that scream in need of defensive-line help.
On Thursday, they add a veteran and will hope he helps.
Los Angeles announced it agreed to terms with veteran defensive tackle Tyrunn Walker. He started eight games in 2016 for the Lions but underperformed, going from starter to a reserve player who was benched for a midseason game. He’ll work to gain favor with a fresh start on a line featuring Aaron Donald, Michael Brockers and Dominique Easley.
Walker, 27, played 353 defensive snaps in 2016. He appeared in 15 games, finishing the season with 26 tackles and no sacks.
The 2012 undrafted free agent from Tulsa missed all but four games in 2015 to a broken leg.
