2013 St. Louis Rams season

NFL team season August 2023 March 2026 St. Louis Rams 2013 7–9 4th NFC West Jeff Fisher Stan Kroenke Les Snead Edward Jones Dome Did not qualify DE Robert QuinnP Johnny Hekker File:St louis rams uniforms12.png Rams seasons The 2013 season was the St. Louis Rams' 76th in the National Football League (NFL), their 19th in St. Louis and their second under head coach Jeff Fisher. The Rams equaled their win total from 2012, but missed the playoffs for a ninth consecutive season. Week 7 saw Sam Bradford make his final appearance in a Rams uniform, as he tore his ACL in a game against the Carolina Panthers. That same injury prevented him from playing in the 2014 season, and he did not play another down in a Rams uniform as he was traded to the Philadelphia Eagles following the 2014 season. 3 2013 draft 2013 NFL draft Round Selection Player Position College 1 8Bills trade [a] Tavon Austin Wide receiver West Virginia 30Multiple trades [b] Alec Ogletree Linebacker Georgia 3 71Bills trade [a] T.
