The Los Angeles Rams could make a deal before the start of the new season with a report naming Nick Foles as the odd man out.
According to Mike Florio of Pro Football Talk, once source has indicated that the Rams will likely trade Foles before training camp starts, as they are ready to move forward with Case Keenum, Sean Mannion and a rookie from the 2016 NFL Draft as their quarterbacks for next season.

The Rams, who are looking to make noise in their first season back in Los Angeles, have been mum about their plans on Foles, but sources indicated that it does not mean the franchise is planning to keep 27-year-old quarterback.
The Rams are just waiting for the perfect time to part ways with Foles, considering the fact that teams in need of a quarterback like the Denver Broncos are currently targeting other big-name QBs at this point.

Recent reports indicated that the Broncos are still waiting if they can acquire Colin Kaepernick in a trade with the San Francisco 49ers. But if the Broncos fail to acquire Kaepernick, Florio said the Rams will be an ideal trade partner for the defending Super Bowl champions.
The Broncos are in search for a quarterback after losing their main signal-callers this offseason. Legendary quarterback Peyton Manning announced his retirement following their Super Bowl triumph, while Brock Osweiler opted to sign a lucrative four-year, $72 million contract with the Houston Texans.
On the other hand, the New York Jets could also be an ideal landing spot for Foles, Yardbarker reported. The Jets have yet to strike a deal to keep Ryan Fitzpatrick, which could force them to settle for other options.
However, analyst Dom Cosentino of NJ.com thinks the Jets will not be willing to give up assets for Foles because the Rams do not view the former Arizona standout as a starter anymore.
Foles completed 56.4 percent of his passes for 2,052 yards with seven touchdowns and 10 interceptions last season.
