Rebilas-USA TODAY Sports Rams guard Kevin Dotson agreed to a three-year, $48 million deal that keeps him with Los Angeles, according to multiple reports.
Dotson, 27, was scheduled to become an unrestricted free agent next week. General manager Les Snead said during the NFL Scouting Combine that the Rams expected negotiations with Dotson to go "into the window," referring to the negotiating period between March 11-13.
A fourth-round pick in 2020 who started for the Steelers before a trade to the Rams before the 2023 regular season began, Dotson has 44 career starts with experience with right guard and left guard over 53 games.
At $16 million per season, Dotson would be among the top 10 guards in annual salary with the Falcons' Chris Lindstrom the highest-paid player at the position ($20.5 million average).
Snead and Los Angeles face more work to keep the offensive line intact.
Center Coleman Shelton is an unrestricted free agent after he voided the player option in his contract for the 2024 season.
