Past Fantasy Outlooks
2023
2022
2020
After spending his first four seasons in the league as a Ram, Long signed a one-year contract this March with Las Vegas where he'll compete for snaps at cornerback behind likely starters Nate Hobbs and Marcus Peters. In his final season with the Rams, Long posted 21 total tackles (18 solo) and one pass defensed in 12 games, ultimately missing five contests due to a nagging groin injury.
Long has a chance to take a big leap in production with the departure of Darious Williams in free agency. The Rams did bring back Troy Hill as a veteran insurance policy, but Long showed some development in 2021 with the first interception of his career along with 40 tackles. It'll be hard to rely on Long as a fantasy producer at the start of the season, but if he's able to leap Hill and find consistent starting time, he could find some fantasy relevance.
A 2019 third-round selection out of Michigan, Long was limited to just 109 defensive and 139 special-teams snaps last season over eight games. He was a two-year starter for the Wolverines and earned first-team All-Big Ten honors in his final collegiate campaign. After what resembles a redshirt season in the pros last year, Long projects to provide cornerback depth and battle rookie Terrell Burgess for nickelback snaps to begin 2020. Long is off the IDP radar until he proves otherwise.
