Jordan Fuller made a splash in the first game of his NFL career. After a team-high eight tackles — including a game-changing stop on fourth down late — in the Los Angeles Rams' 20-17 win over the Dallas Cowboys , he drew high praise from star teammates such as defensive tackle Aaron Donald.
"He's a young that stepped up for us and made a big play for us to help us win this game," said Donald, a six-time Pro Bowl pick and five-time All-Pro selection. "He's out there on that field playing for a reason, you know, to make plays like that and help us."
Cornerback Jalen Ramsey echoed Donald's sentiments. Fuller, whom the Rams selected April 25 from Ohio State with the No. 199 overall pick in the sixth round of the 2020 NFL Draft, has been flashing for the past month.
"Jordan has been balling all camp," said Ramsey, a three-time Pro Bowl pick and one-time All-Pro selection. "We are happy to have him in our secondary and he's been playing extremely well, so we expected him to do that again tonight. Very proud of him, glad to have him a part of this team."
