After acquiring him via trade on Tuesday, the Los Angeles Rams expect Dante Fowler to contribute on Sunday against the New Orleans Saints.

"We feel like he's going to help us, specifically from a rush perspective," Sean McVay said. "Got him in here and we'll see how quickly he can get up to speed, if he's going to be able to contribute and help us this weekend. But we're excited to get Dante here."

The biggest hurdle will be getting Fowler comfortable in the Rams' defensive scheme.

"He passed his physical and he's going to — really, today is more of a mental, kind of that above-the-neck approach on a Wednesday for us," McVay said. "So, he'll get exposed to a lot of reps. If he's taking part in it or if he's standing right there with [defensive line coach] Billy Johnson listening to some of the calls, the communication. But we anticipate him being able to be involved and kind of, really, we'll see how he's able to adjust, how he's able to absorb that information. But we wanted to get him in here and hopeful that he's a contributor for us as soon as this weekend against a tough team."
