The Los Angeles Rams had to face the Philadelphia Eagles without Braden Fiske for most of the game in the divisional round after he suffered a knee injury in the first quarter. It was a tough loss for the Rams, who nearly beat the eventual champions to advance to the NFC title game.
It’s unclear exactly what the injury was but it was severe enough to require a minor procedure this offseason. There were no concerns about his availability for the 2025 season and based on a video shared by the Rams, he appears to be right on track.
Fiske shared an update in this behind-the-scenes video, saying he’s in a “really good spot” mentally. He sure looks every bit as explosive as he was pre-injury, too.
“Mentally, I’m in a really good spot,” Fiske said. “I think early on in the offseason, it’s easy to dread on everything that’s going on. It’s easier to make excuses instead of solutions. It’s hard to feel like a football player when all you do is small movements. You’re just in there constantly doing the same thing but your body’s your temple in this game and I’m constantly just trying to improve my craft and get my body feeling good.”
“I didn’t lose my superpower.”

Fiske is an integral part of the Rams’ defense, providing an immediate impact as a rookie last season. He led the team with 8.5 sacks and also had 10 quarterback hits to go along with 44 total tackles, playing all 17 games and making eight starts.
He should continue to get better as he becomes even more comfortable in the NFL, so the sky’s the limit for him entering Year 2.
