Since becoming General Manager of the Rams in 2012, Les Snead has reshaped the franchise from perennial underdogs to Super Bowl champions and league innovators. He has been the driving force behind the Rams’ appearances in Super Bowl LIII and Super Bowl LVI—claiming victory in the latter—by challenging traditional team-building philosophies and embracing aggressive, high-reward strategies.
Snead’s signature approach—built on intelligent trades, analytics, and talent scouting—earned him a reputation as one of the boldest executives in professional sports. He has orchestrated 49 trades and drafted or acquired some of the NFL’s most dominant players, including Aaron Donald, Cooper Kupp, Todd Gurley, and Matthew Stafford. His track record includes seven All-Pro draft selections and a consistent presence in the postseason, with six winning seasons in seven years.
Beyond building a winning team, Snead redefined what it means to lead in the NFL. From pioneering a “win-now” roster strategy to embracing data-driven decision-making, his influence reaches across the league. His moves—including blockbuster trades for stars like Von Miller and Jalen Ramsey—have become case studies in high-stakes leadership.
Snead also helped lead the Rams through their return to Los Angeles, overseeing both a football resurgence and a complete organizational transformation. His work laid the foundation for a culture rooted in collaboration, innovation, and excellence.
A graduate of Auburn University, where he played tight end on the Tigers’ undefeated 1993 team, Snead began his career in the NFL as a scouting intern. He rose through the ranks with the Jaguars and Falcons, eventually earning the top executive role with the Rams. Today, he remains deeply involved in youth development and educational initiatives, sitting on the advisory boards of GAMEBREAKER, a soft-shelled headgear for contact and non-contact sport, and the UVA Curry School Foundation.
