  "account": "The LA Rams have signed undrafted free agent safety Maximus Pulley to their 53-man roster, replacing Ronnie Rivers, who was placed on injured reserve after an injury sustained during a Monday night game against the Giants. Pulley, who played for Wofford College in the NCAA Division I Football Championship Subdivision (FCS), boasts an impressive career record of 185 total tackles, including 100 solo, 7 TFLs, 7 INTs, 3 defensive touchdowns, 16 personal fouls, 1 forced fumble, 5 fumble recoveries, and 1 blocked kick. According to an SI scouting report, Pulley is a safety prospect best suited as a nickel defender, noted for his quick trigger, high-energy bursts, and strong downhill closing ability. He excels in underneath zone defense when covering intermediate areas, demonstrating strong spacing and range near the line of scrimmage. The Rams' decision to keep Pulley on the roster suggests they see potential in the young safety, with the next question being whether they will make room for a third running back by releasing someone else from the roster.",
