Fans are appalled by Rams trading Ernest Jones to Titans

Just two days after it was reported that the Los Angeles Rams were open to trading Ernest Jones, the team struck a deal involving the fourth-year linebacker. The Rams are trading him to the Tennessee Titans, getting a 2026 fifth-round pick in return. The Rams also sent Tennessee a 2026 sixth-rounder.

The compensation is minimal for a player of Jones’ caliber, which makes this trade even more surprising. He’s a starting linebacker who’s only in his fourth year, yet the Titans just got him for barely more than a bag of chips.

Fans were predictably shocked by the low return, with many criticizing Les Snead for getting so little in exchange for an integral player on defense. Here are some of the top reactions on social media.
