Los Angeles Rams inside linebacker Alec Ogletree switched from SportsTrust Advisors to Creative Arts Agency (CAA) before the new season.

CAA Sports has signed 8 veteran NFL players including Texans LB Whitney Mercilus & Rams LB Alec Ogletree. SBJ: https://t.co/WPGmGMbhRg — Liz Mullen (@SBJLizMullen) May 8, 2017

Ogletree was one of eight veterans to sign a new deal with CAA during the offseason. Other players include linebacker Whitney Mercilus (Prime Athletes), wide receiver Kelvin Benjamin (Relativity Sports) and cornerback Aaron Colvin (PlayersRep Sports) as well.

CAA also picked up Myles Jack (Octagon) who was a rookie linebacker last season.

The Rams linebacker has had a $1.75 million average annual salary since signing with the team. But this season, he will have a $8.36 million cap hit for Los Angeles.

He is a definitive starter for the Rams next season at inside linebacker, but rookie Samson Ebukam could potentially replace him if he leaves after this season.

Pro Football Focus ranked Ogletree as a Top 50 linebacker in 2016 with a rating comparable to Kiko Alonso from the Miami Dolphins.
