The Facts: Britt is on the list of Rams eligible to become unrestricted free agents this offseason. That doesn't mean he will. “I definitely want to come back here,” Britt said. “This is a young team. It’s a great young team. They’ve just scratched the surface on what their abilities could be. They’re growing each day, and they’re growing each year. I’ve only been here one year, so to see how they’ve grown from OTAs to now is just amazing. So I want to see ’em grow even more. I hope I can be a part of that.”
Diehards Line:
Britt revived his career by grabbing a career-high 48 passes this season for a team-high 748 yards and a team-high 15.6 yards per catch. As Post-Dispatch staffer Jim Thomas suggested, of all the Rams’ free agents, Britt may be the least likely to bolt to the highest bidder because of his relationship with HC Jeff Fisher. As a Ram, Britt has avoided the off-field issues that plagued his career at Tennessee. And in the three seasons he played for the Titans without Fisher, his career nose-dived, in part because of injury. With the uncertainty of when Brian Quick will return following shoulder surgery — and it may not be until training camp — wide receiver becomes a much more prominent need if Britt signs elsewhere.
