SIOUX FALLS, S.D. (Dakota News Now) – Whether he was a prep playing on both sides of the ball at Sioux Center High School, or a linebacker at South Dakota State, you could always count on Christian Rozeboom bringing fireworks on the gridiron every fall.

Something fans of the Los Angeles Rams are starting to become accustom to in the NFL.

It certainly took Rozeboom time to find his place with the Rams after twice being waived once he initially signed with them as an undrafted rookie free agent out of SDSU in April of 2020. After starting the 2021 season on Kansas City’s practice squad before getting elevated to the active roster and making his NFL debut with the Chiefs, the Rams eventually reacquired Christian and he’s played in 43 games ever since, picking up a Super Bowl ring as a special teamer with LA in 2021.

Last year was his best yet, starting in five games, picking up 79 tackles, 51 solo and an interception, figuring to be an even bigger part of the Rams plans as he heads into his fifth NFL season.

It’s a rise that almost mirrors the one he had coming out of Sioux Center when he was only recruited by SDSU and Northwestern College, yet went on to become an FCS All-American, something not lost on Christian when he was in Sioux Falls last week coaching and sharing his story with campers at the Jackrabbit Former Players Association youth camp.

Training camp for Rozeboom and the Rams begins on July 21st at Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles.
