Rams name 11 team captains for 2026, including 3 newcomers
After setting their 53-man roster on Sunday, the Los Angeles Rams voted on 11 team captains for the 2026 season. Three of them are newcomers to the team, which shows what an impact they’ve already made in the locker room and on the practice field. Those newcomers are Myles Garrett, Trent McDuffie and Joe Cardona.
Matthew Stafford is a captain for the sixth straight year, while Davante Adams is a captain for the first time in his Rams career. Kyren Williams is back as a captain, while Tyler Higbee was also voted one by his teammates. Coleman Shelton is a first-time captain on offense, as well.
On defense, Kobe Turner, Nate Landman and Quentin Lake are repeat captains, with Garrett and McDuffie joining the mix. Cardona replaces Ethan Evans as a captain on special teams.

The Rams had just seven captains last season, so this is a big jump for the 2026 campaign. It’s a testament to the leadership and experience they have across the roster, though. Sean McVay said it’s as special a group as he’s been around in his career, and the long list of captains reflects that.
