Rams add depth linebacker for NFC Championship push in emergency roster move. Limited media coverage suggests a practice squad or emergency call-up, not a major acquisition. Signing a reserve linebacker mid-playoff run indicates injury concerns at the position. Fans view this as routine depth management rather than impactful reinforcement. Neal likely serves as a short-term reserve unless injuries force extended playing time.
