A source told ESPN's Adam Schefter the deal is worth $14 million.

Suh visited New Orleans and Tennessee during his free agency tour, and he was scheduled to visit Oakland before canceling last week.

The Oregon native might be just 347 days younger than Rams' head coach Sean McVay-the youngest head coach in modern National Football League history-but he is still only 31-years-old and in the prime of his career.

Since entering the league in 2010, Suh, 31, leads all interior defensive linemen with 55.0 stuffs, a tackle of a ball carrier behind the line of scrimmage, and is second among all defensive tackles in quarterback sacks with 51.5.

With Suh's arrival on a lucrative one-year deal, the Rams have signaled their determination to compete for the Super Bowl immediately.

"We are excited have Ndamukong as a part of the Los Angeles Rams", said General Manager Les Snead in a statement.

He had 15.5 sacks in three seasons with the Dolphins and has made just one Pro Bowl since 2014.

With Suh and Donald playing side by side, the Rams will have a superb foundation for defensive coordinator Wade Phillips' 3-4 scheme.

The New York Jets rescinded their contract offer to free agent defensive tackle Ndamukong Suh.

But the team managed only 22 wins, and Suh was released in the middle of March as part of what was deemed a culture change by the Dolphins. Suh's only missed time was the result of a two-game suspension in 2011 for roughing up then-Green Bay Packers guard Evan Dietrich-Smith. Suh, who likely will play nose tackle, and steady veteran Michael Brockers are expected to start up front alongside Donald, the AP's Defensive Player of the Year and a four-time Pro Bowl selection.

Last week, Suh said he was impressed by the Rams during his visit and they were considered the favorite to sign him.
