Max Klare isn't getting cut as a second-round pick. He is either on the same developmental plan as Ty Simpson and the Rams don't expect him to contribute much in 2026, barring injury.

Klare's full preseason game suggests developmental role rather than immediate impact.

Klare, a second-round pick, is not getting cut. He participated the entire preseason game, which could signal two things: either he is on the same developmental plan as Ty Simpson and the Rams don't expect him to contribute much in 2026 barring injury, or the team knows they need as many tight ends as possible and felt high volume of snaps and targets could accelerate his growth. The source leans toward the first interpretation.
