Rams Bringing In DE Quinton Coples For A Visit On Monday

Rand Getlin of NFL Media reports that the Rams are hosting free agent DE Quinton Coples for a visit on Monday.

The Panthers brought Coples in for a visit a few weeks ago, but he wound up leaving Carolina without an offer.

It’s worth mentioning that signing Coples to a contract wouldn’t factor into a team’s 2017 compensatory picks.

Coples, 25, is a former first-round pick of the Jets back in 2012. However, he lasted just three years in New York before he was waived and later claimed by the Dolphins back in November.

The Jets elected to pick upย Coples’ fifth-year option back in April, butย this figure wasย guaranteed for injury only, soย the Dolphins were able to release him in a move thatย freed upย $7.751 million in available cap spaceย without any issue.

In 2015,ย Coples appeared in 16ย games and recorded eight tackles, no sacks, and a fumble recovery for the Jets and Dolphins.
