2025 Fantasy Outlook
The Rams used a rotation at free safety in 2024, and Lake was a primary beneficiary. After playing nearly exclusively in the slot in 2023, he played regularly in the box, at free safety and in the slot last season. The result was an expanded role and breakout performance, highlighted by 111 tackles, five passes defensed and two sacks. The tricky part of Lake's performance was that he primarily excelled against the run but has yet to establish himself as reliable in coverage. That could result in Kamren Curl and Lake swapping safety spots in 2025, with Lake playing more regularly in the box with Curl operating as a more traditional safety. If the Rams are unwilling to do so, Lake is likely to be in line for a significant step back in fantasy production even if he remains a key member of the defensive unit. Read Past Outlooks
Signed a three-year, $42 million contract with the Rams in January of 2026.
Campaign disrupted by elbow surgery
Lake finished the 2025 regular season with 61 tackles (37 solo), including 1.0 sacks, and one forced fumble while adding 10 passes defensed, including one interception, over 10 games with the Rams.
ANALYSIS
Lake played the first 10 weeks of the 2025 season without missing a single defensive snap. This impressive streak came to an end when the slot cornerback suffered an elbow injury in the Week 11 win over the Seahawks, which required surgery that would keep Lake out until the playoffs. Fortunately, the cornerback returned for January's playoff run, where he once again logged every defensive snap. The overall consistency from the 27-year-old earned him a three-year, $42 million contract that will keep him as the starting slot cornerback for the Rams through the 2028 season.

2024 Fantasy Outlook
Entering his third year in the league, Lake saw his usage spike in 2023 after taking over as a starting safety in the latter half of the season. While Lake never managed to earn an interception over 14 games played, he did rack up 53 tackles and six passes defended. Jordan Fuller departed in free agency, but the Rams added veteran Kamren Curl to take over at strong safety. Lake likely will continue to serve as the Rams' starting free safety ahead of Russ Yeast, the man he took over for last year, but the Rams may choose the hot-hand approach again if neither player leaps out in the preseason.
