2025 Fantasy Outlook
Ford enjoyed a fruitful stop with the Chargers last season, with a career-high 3.0 sacks and five pass defenses to go along with 39 tackles and his first career interception. The Rams elected to give the veteran a three-year, $30 million deal in March, bringing Ford to his fourth new team in as many years. A dependable and durable defensive lineman (zero missed games due to injury since 2019), the vet should fit in nicely with a pair of talented young defensive linemen in Braden Fiske and Kobie Turner.

Ford (calf) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup against the Cardinals, Nate Atkins of The Athletic reports.
ANALYSIS
The Texas product logged consecutive DNPs to begin the Rams' week of practice, but it still appears he has a chance to suit up Sunday. Ford has appeared in all 12 of Los Angeles' games this season, recording 34 total tackles, including 1.0 sacks, and one pass defensed. If he's unavailable in Week 14, Ty Hamilton will likely operate as the Rams' top nose tackle.

Past Fantasy Outlooks
2024
2022
2020
A three-year starter for Seattle early in his career, Ford joined the Bills last season and ultimately saw limited usage despite a front four that seemingly was gashed by opposing rushing attacks. Ford will have an opportunity to show that his Buffalo stint was just a blip on the radar as the 28-year-old is expected to be rotated heavily along the front three of the defensive line.
Ford was a workhorse on the Seahawks' defensive front last season, as he averaged 45.1 snaps per game and posted a career-high 53 tackles in addition to two sacks and a pass breakup. He'll earn $8.325 million in 2022 and likely will handle a similar role to last year. With fellow DT Quinton Jefferson also in the fold, the Seahawks' interior defensive line completes a solid front seven in Seattle.
Ford started 14 of 15 games he played in 2019 after his rookie season ended on a high note, and the Texas product compiled 32 tackles, 0.5 sacks and a fumble recovery. He doesn't light up the stat sheet, but his snap count is secure after the Seahawks did little to replace Quinton Jefferson, who departed for Buffalo in March.
