Jalen Ramsey wants Derion Kendrick to remain aggressive for Rams

The Los Angeles Rams surrendered a 57-yard touchdown to Deebo Samuel in Week 4 as a result of Derion Kendrick trying to jump the route. Even though Kendrick came up short of intercepting Jimmy Garoppolo’s pass, Jalen Ramsey wants the rookie cornerback to remain aggressive.

“He’s just got to keep taking them chances. You don’t grow unless you fail sometimes, right? If he was out there playing scared that isn’t going to do him no good. He’s never going to have the confidence to make them plays. You learn from mistakes like that. I don’t even call it a mistake, he just shot his shot, but it didn’t work out, right? It happens, it’s football,” Ramsey said. “It was a good player that made the play and you chalk it up, really. But we don’t trip about it. You can’t be scared of failure or you just won’t ever do anything. You won’t ever accomplish anything in life, in the sport, whatever it may be. We are good with how he’s playing, how fearless he’s playing.”
