Bryce Perkins

Perkins signed a reserve/future contract with the Rams on Monday, Stu Jackson of the team's official site reports.

Analysis: Perkins enjoyed a solid college career, throwing for 6,210 yards, 47 touchdowns and 21 interceptions and running for 1,691 yards and 20 scores over 27 games at Virginia. An undrafted rookie, Perkins spent the 2020 season on the Rams' practice squad. The 24-year-old will aim to win a backup role in Los Angeles this offseason.

Perkins was elevated from the Rams' practice squad on Friday, Eric D. Williams of SI.com reports.

Analysis: With John Wolford out for Saturday's NFC divisional-round game against the Packers, Perkins has been called up from the practice squad to provide depth at quarterback. Jared Goff will officially get the start and Blake Bortles will likely serve as the backup.

Perkins was elevated from the Rams' practice squad Saturday.

Analysis: Perkins was not officially signed by the Rams, but rather called up as a COVID-19 replacement. With Jared Goff (hand) sidelined, he will be available to provide depth at quarterback behind John Wolford and Blake Bortles if needed.

Perkins cleared waivers Sunday and signed with the Rams' practice squad, Jamie Han of the team's official site reports.

Analysis: Perkins lost the battle to be Jared Goff's backup, as head coach Sean McVay awarded the job to John Wolford. However, in an unconventional season, Perkins will remain on the practice squad and could be promoted if Goff or Wolford are unavailable.
