According to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network, the Los Angeles Rams have traded Robert Woods to the TennesseeTitans.

The Rams will get a sixth-round pick in exchange for the receiver.

The first report that the Titans had real interest in Woods was from Michael Fabiano.

The Rams had a surplus at receiver after signing Allen Robinson. The team hopes to re-sign Beckham Jr., according to the report.

The wideout is expected to recover in time for training camp, which is when Woods became a prime trade candidate.

After just nine games, Woods had 45 catches for 556 yards and four touchdown.

It was the end of a three-year run of over 85 catches for Woods, which averaged 1,096 receiving yards per season. During his five seasons in Los Angeles, the 29-year-old has averaged 5.4 catches per game.

This could be exactly what the team needed after releasing a veteran.

Tennessee had a clear No. 1 option in A.J. Brown, but depth was a question mark with Marcus Johnson and Chester Rogers currently unsigned. The only other receiver besides Brown who had more than 100 receiving yards was Nick Westbrook-Ikhine.

Woods gives the team with a proven option who can take pressure off Brown and bring more balance to the offense.

Tennessee hopes this addition will help the team get closer to a Super Bowl title.
