The trade came after the Rams lost the NFC championship game to the Seattle Seahawks, 31-27. In that game, Seahawks quarterback Sam Darnold led a drive that left the Rams with only 25 seconds remaining.
The Rams gave up Jared Verse and multiple draft selections.
Garrett, who previously played for the Browns, joins the Rams defensive line. The Rams had reached the NFC championship the prior season but fell short after failing to stop the Seahawks' final drive.
The Rams defense allowed Darnold to complete three of four passes during the closing minutes. The team finished the season without securing another possession after that sequence. No further roster moves were announced in the immediate aftermath of the trade.
