As great pass rushers throughout the NFL’s history can attest, bringing a high motor to every snap can sometimes position you for a “right-place-right-time” sack; on Jan. 25, 2026, Jared Verse got to see that illustration firsthand. On record in saying that the NFC Championship Game’s energy was “just different,” the Rams’ defensive star matched it perfectly on a 3rd & 12, using a spin move and sound pocket awareness to track down Seattle’s already-falling quarterback. Verse put a sack in the postseason record books, joined by three tackles and three QB hits, as Los Angeles fought valiantly in a season-ending 31-27 loss to the Seahawks.
