Braden Fiske was banged up last season. He didn’t look 100% healthy, perhaps due to the surgery he had on his knee following his rookie year in 2024. He also suffered an ankle injury late last season.
But heading into Year 3, he looks ready to roll. After a dip in production last season, Fiske could be poised for a bounce-back season in 2026, especially after seeing him breeze through a footwork drill at practice this week.
He looks as quick as ever, wowing fans with his foot speed and explosiveness in a new video that the Rams posted from their workout program. Davante Adams, Puka Nacua, Trent McDuffie and several other players are in the video, but it was Fiske who stole the show at the 10-second mark.
Fiske works as hard as anyone and while he does need to improve as a run defender on the interior, his quickness is what makes him a dangerous pass rusher alongside Jared Verse, Kobie Turner and Byron Young.
If he can take that next step in 2026, the Rams’ defensive line has a chance to do something special.
One practice drill doesn’t tell a whole story but it’s good to see Fiske healthy and explosive entering Year 3.
