Walker, who was practicing with the Rams by Wednesday afternoon, enters as a rotational player for a defensive line that is in need of replenishing some depth. The 27-year-old has compiled 3 1/2 sacks and 63 tackles while playing in 42 games (13 starts) for the Saints and Lions from 2012 to 2016.

Walker trained with Rams inside linebacker Alec Ogletree until he reported to training camp in late July, then spent the first three weeks of August training at his old high school in Louisiana.
