The Rams are bringing in a seasoned hand to address their special teams struggles.
Los Angeles is hiring Bubba Ventrone as their new special teams coordinator, NFL Network Insider Tom Pelissero reported Thursday.
Ventrone comes to the Rams after serving as Cleveland’s special teams coordinator from 2023-25. He also held the same role with the Indianapolis Colts from 2018-2022 and began his NFL coaching career as a Patriots assistant from 2015-2017.
A former special teams standout for eight years as a player, Ventrone has been immersed in the third phase of the game for nearly two decades.
His expertise couldn’t come at a better time for the Rams. L.A.’s special teams were a persistent weakness in 2025, costing the team multiple regular-season games and ultimately contributing to a disappointing season.
