Rams' Malcolm Brown: Minimal production in backup role
Malcolm Brown rushed 18 times for 81 yards and a touchdown and added five catches for 37 yards during the 2022 season.The eight-year veteran spent most of the season bouncing on and off the practice squad, and his 81 rushing yards marked his lowest season-long tally since the 2016 campaign. Brown will be an unrestricted free agent heading into 2023, and with Cam Akers, Kyren Williams and Ronnie Rivers all likely returning to the Los Angeles Rams next season, Brown may be looking for a new home to provide veteran depth.

Rams' Malcolm Brown: Scores first touchdown of season
Malcolm Brown rushed once for 23 yards and a touchdown during Sunday's 31-10 loss to the Chargers.Brown's lone touch of the game was an up the gut rush on third down, and the veteran back went untouched as he scampered his way to the end zone for the Los Angeles Rams' only touchdown of the game. Despite the score, Brown's usage remained limited at just eight offensive snaps, and with Cam Akers continuing his late season resurgence with another eye-popping stat line (19-123-0), there's little reason to think Brown will get an extended look in the season finale against the Seahawks.

Rams' Malcolm Brown: Breaks off long run in win
Malcolm Brown rushed twice for 19 yards and caught his only target for two yards during Sunday's 51-14 victory against the Broncos.Brown saw the field for just six snaps on offense, but he made the most of his scant usage by breaking off a 17-yard run early in the fourth quarter, helping to set up Cam Akers for his third and final touchdown of the game. Brown is still third on the depth chart behind Akers and rookie Kyren Williams, and the veteran is unlikely to jump either player as the Los Angeles Rams try to see what they have in their younger backs in the final two games of a lost season.

Rams' Malcolm Brown: Signed to active roster
Malcolm Brown was signed to the active roster Saturday.Brown has appeared in six different games with the Los Angeles Rams this season and so far has carried the ball 15 times for 39 yards and has caught all four of his targets for 35 yards. Brown will be the third option in the run game, as Cam Akers and Kyren Williams should be expected to handle the majority of the carries.

Rams' Malcolm Brown: Limited usage in win
Malcolm Brown rushed once for five yards and secured both of his targets for 12 yards during Thursday's 17-16 win against the Raiders.Brown actually logged a season-high 18 snaps on offense, one shy of Kyren Williams, but other than a nine-yard snag on the Los Angeles Rams' game-winning drive, the veteran running back was an afterthought in the offensive game plan. Despite a plus matchup with Green Bay up next in Week 15, Brown's prospects still look dim barring an injury to Cam Akers or Williams.

Rams' Malcolm Brown: Activated for TNF
The Los Angeles Rams elevated Malcolm Brown from the practice squad ahead of Thursday's game versus the Raiders.Brown will be bumped up to the active roster for the second game in a row after playing all eight of his snaps on special teams Week 13 against Seattle. The 29-year-old previously logged 14 rushes for 34 yards while filling in on the team's depleted running back corps over three games in late October to early November. However, with Cam Akers, Kyren Williams and Ronnie Rivers now all available, it's likely Brown will once again exclusively slot in on special teams if he does see the field Week 14.

Malcolm Brown: Heads back to practice squad
Malcolm Brown reverted to the Rams' practice squad Monday, per the NFL's official transactions log.Brown never saw the field on offense in Sunday's loss to the Seahawks. However, he did contribute eight snaps on special teams. It was his sixth appearance of the season, and considering the Rams have three healthy running backs on the active roster, it's unclear whether he may be elevated again for Week 14 against the Raiders.

Malcolm Brown: Re-signed to practice squad
The Rams signed Malcolm Brown (hamstring) to their practice squad Monday, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.Brown was waived by the Rams ahead of Sunday's 27-17 loss to the Cardinals, as he popped up with a hamstring injury during practice Wednesday. However, the 29-year-old was likely to see decreased playing time moving forward anyhow after rookie running back Kyren Williams was activated from IR on Saturday. Brown was previously elevated from Los Angeles' practice squad for the team's Week 3 loss to San Francisco, and he'll be eligible for two more such activations moving forward this season.
