Rams' Ronnie Rivers: Joins active roster
The Rams elevated Rivers to their active roster Saturday.
The Fresno State product was also elevated for the Rams' Week 7 win over the Jaguars, failing to record an offensive stat across 10 total snaps (nine on special teams, one on offense). Now back with the active roster, he's likely to contribute on special teams in Sunday's matchup against the Saints.

Ronnie Rivers: Back with practice squad
Rivers reverted to the Rams' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transaction log.
Rivers was elevated from the practice squad ahead of Sunday's 35-7 win over the Jaguars, failing to record any stats while playing one snap on offense and nine snaps with the special-teams unit. The running back is eligible to be elevated two more times before he'd have to be officially signed to the active roster.

Rams' Ronnie Rivers: Elevated for Week 7
The Rams elevated Rivers from the practice squad to the active roster Saturday.
Rivers was signed to the Rams' practice squad in late August after failing to make the 53-man roster at the end of training camp. Week 7 against the Jaguars marks Rivers' first elevation of the season, and he'll most likely see the field on special teams while serving as a backfield depth option behind Kyren Williams, Blake Corum and rookie fourth-rounder Jarquez Hunter.

Ronnie Rivers: Back to practice squad
The Rams signed Rivers to the practice squad Wednesday, Wyatt Miller of the team's official site reports.
Rivers failed to beat out Jarquez Hunter for the RB3 spot on the Rams' 53-man roster. Rivers will stick around on the practice squad and would be a candidate to be elevated to the active roster if Hunter, Kyren Williams or Blake Corum were unable to play.

Ronnie Rivers: Cut by LAR
The Rams waived Rivers (ribs) on Tuesday.
Rivers signed a one-year contract with the Rams in March and entered training camp competing against Blake Corum and Jarquez Hunter for a depth spot in the backfield behind starter Kyren Williams. Rivers was limited to just one preseason game due to a rib injury, and that may have played a factor in him not making the Rams' 53-man roster. The Fresno State product will go on waivers, but if he goes unclaimed, he'll have the opportunity to catch on with a team in need of depth out of the backfield.

Rams' Ronnie Rivers: Expected to miss time
Rams head coach Sean McVay said Sunday that Rivers (ribs) will be out for "a little bit of time," Greg Beacham of the Associated Press reports.
Rivers is nursing a ribs injury sustained during Los Angeles' preseason game against the Cowboys on Saturday. Any significant time missed could negatively impact his chances of securing a depth backfield role behind starting running back Kyren Williams. His next chance to play this preseason will come Saturday, Aug. 16 against the Chargers.

Rams' Ronnie Rivers: Done for the day
Rivers (ribs) has been ruled out for the remainder of Saturday's preseason game against the Cowboys, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.
Rivers suited up for all 17 regular-season games with Los Angeles in 2024, though he rushed only 22 times for 99 yards in that span. The 2022 UDFA is competing for a reserve role in the Rams' backfield behind starter Kyren Williams, and he'll work to get back on the field in time to face the Chargers in preseason action on Saturday, Aug. 16.

Rams' Ronnie Rivers: Staying in Los Angeles
Rivers signed a one-year contract with the Rams on Sunday, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.
Rivers opened the 2024 regular season as the Rams' No. 2 running back behind Kyren Williams, but he was eventually bumped down to third string by rookie Blake Corum. Rivers saw plenty of work on special teams for the Rams last season and should reprise that role in 2025. He finished the 2024 campaign with 22 carries for 99 yards and five catches (on six targets) for 34 yards across 17 regular-season games.

Rams' Ronnie Rivers: Blanked in playoff loss
Rivers played all 16 of his snaps on special teams in Sunday's 28-22 NFC divisional-round loss to the Eagles.
Head coach Sean McVay didn't deviate from starting running back Kyren Williams at all on Sunday, leaving him in for all 71 snaps on offense. On the season, Rivers compiled 22 rushing attempts for 99 yards and tacked on five catches for 34 yards, and he's set to become a restricted free agent in the offseason. Rookie Blake Corum (forearm) established himself as the backup to Williams by season's end, but Rivers has a key role on special teams, which may entice the Rams into bringing him back in 2025.

Rams' Ronnie Rivers: Earns three touches
Rivers carried the ball three times for eight yards during Monday's 27-9 wild-card win against the Vikings.
With Blake Corum (forearm) out for the playoffs, Rivers stepped in as the primary backup to Kyren Williams at running back. As has been the case all season, Williams didn't come off the field often, playing 46 snaps and earning a total of 19 touches for 92 yards and a touchdown. Rivers played just seven snaps, and his three touches all came in the fourth quarter with the Rams holding a comfortable lead. Rivers is likely to continue to see limited volume on offense in the divisional round against a stout Eagles run defense.

Rams' Ronnie Rivers: Leads backup offense Sunday
Rivers rushed for 48 yards on 12 carries while bringing in four of five targets for 34 receiving yards in Sunday's 30-25 loss to the Seahawks.
The Rams rested starter Kyren Williams for a Week 18 contest that had marginal playoff implications for Los Angeles. Actual spot-starter Blake Corum (forearm) recorded just three touches before exiting the contest and opening the door for Rivers to garner 16 touches in the narrow loss. With the former already ruled out for the entire playoff schedule, Rivers is lined up to serve as Williams' primary backup in next Monday's home playoff matchup against Minnesota.

Rams' Ronnie Rivers: Limited to special-teams role
Rivers played all 20 of his snaps on special teams in Thursday's 12-6 win over the 49ers.
Rivers had been working ahead of Blake Corum as the top backup to lead back Kyren Williams through the first four games of the season, but the rookie has since supplanted Rivers for the No. 2 role. Though he's been active for each of the Rams' ensuing 10 contests, Rivers has played exclusively on special teams in all of those games.

Rams' Ronnie Rivers: Reverts to special teams role
Rivers did not record a snap on offense and played 11 snaps on special teams during Sunday's 24-19 loss to the Packers.
For the first time this season, Rivers did not act as the backup to Kyren Williams, with Blake Corum filling the role instead. Whether this is a one-game test for the third-round rookie before the Rams go on bye in Week 6, or if Corum has officially jumped Rivers on the depth chart remains to be seen, but Corum notably produced very similar numbers to what Rivers had been producing with his touches (five rushes for 25 yards, one catch for eight yards). Regardless, the role of Williams hasn't changed, as he rushed 22 times for 102 yards and a touchdown, so neither Rivers nor Corum have much immediate value barring an injury to Williams.

Rams' Ronnie Rivers: Season-high usage in loss
Rivers rushed six times for 26 yards during Sunday's 24-18 loss against Chicago.
The third-year back saw his usage creep up for the second consecutive week, taking the field for 13 of the Rams' 61 snaps on offense. For the third time in four weeks, rookie Blake Corum was used exclusively on special teams, leaving Rivers as the clear No. 2 behind Kyren Williams. Even with the slight uptick in usage, the Rams backfield still runs through Williams (19-94-1 on Sunday) heading into a Week 5 matchup against the Packers.

Rams' Ronnie Rivers: Pair of touches in victory
Rivers rushed twice for nine yards during Sunday's 27-24 victory against San Francisco.
Kyren Williams (24-89-2 rushing line Sunday) is locked in as the starter for the Rams, but Rivers continued to work as the backup. The third-year pro converted a pivotal fourth down on a fake punt, keeping alive a drive that ended in a receiving touchdown for Williams. Notably, third-round rookie Blake Corum didn't take a snap on offense for the second time in three games, meaning Rivers seems firmly locked in as the backup to Williams, at least for now. Rivers likely will continue to have a limited role in the offense in a Week 4 contest against the Bears.

Rams' Ronnie Rivers: One catch in defeat
Rivers caught his only target for no gain and played three snaps on offense during Sunday's 41-10 loss to the Cardinals.
Kyren Williams continued to dominate the touches in the backfield, only yielding three snaps to Rivers before the game was completely out of hand. Rookie Blake Corum had eight rushing attempts, but all eight came on the final drive of the game with the game already wrapped up, so his usage was likely to eat up the remaining clock and protect an already depleted offense from taking any further damage. It appears that, so long as Williams is healthy, Rivers and Corum will be mostly used for special teams, but Rivers is the only other back on the roster to play meaningful snaps through the Rams' first two games.
