John Johnson III is back with the Rams. Again.
The veteran safety has agreed to his third stint with the Rams, the team announced Thursday, one year after a successful return. Terms of the deal were not disclosed.
Johnson, a third-round draft pick out of Boston College in 2017, started four seasons for the Rams. He left as a free agent in 2021, signing a three-year, $33.75 million deal with the Cleveland Browns.
Released after two seasons, Johnson signed a one-year contract to come back to the Rams on Aug. 7 last year.
Johnson, 28, played in all 17 regular-season games last season, eventually starting eight games as well as the Rams’ wild-card playoff loss to the Detroit Lions while helping oversee a defense loaded with untested youth. On the season, he recorded two interceptions – his first coming during a 36-19 victory against Cleveland on Dec. 3 – and 42 tackles.
The Rams have also brought back defensive back Darious Williams on a three-year deal. Their secondary will have some new faces like former Washington safety Kamren Curl, former Buffalo cornerback Tre’Davious White and rookie safety Kamren Kinchens, a third-round pick out of Miami.
Training camp begins July 23 at Loyola Marymount University in Westchester.
