Hannah Ann Sluss & Jake Funk Adjusting To The Change: Funk Joined Saints

Jake Funk, a former football star at Maryland, didn’t take long to find a new squad. Wednesday saw Funk join the New Orleans Saints, one day after the L.A. Rams released him.

Funk played largely on special teams for the Rams during the prior season, as well as the first five games of this one. Malcolm Brown, a different running back who the team signed, rendered him unnecessary. Because of the practice squad nature of his Saints contract, he will have to earn a spot on the active roster again.

Jake Funk, a former running back for the Rams, has joined the Saints practice squad after clearing waivers, according to a source.

Funk had a standout year at Maryland when the Rams selected him in the seventh round of the 2021 Draft. Funk signed a four-year, $3,588,228 deal with the Rams, which allegedly included a $108,228 signing bonus.

Hanna Sluss says, “They are adjusting to the new change” Jake Funk Joined Saints!

Jake Funk, a former Rams running back, is enjoying a fresh start with the Saints.

Following his release from Los Angeles earlier this week, Funk, the partner of “Bachelor” alum Hannah Ann Sluss, signed with the practice squad in New Orleans on Wednesday.

Following his release by the Rams last Tuesday, the 24-year-old running back provided his followers with an update on his NFL activities in a post uploaded this week on her Instagram Story.

“Jake is doing fine, too, and we’re getting used to the difference, but I can’t wait to see him once this week’s work is finished.” As she cuddled with Dash, the couple’s puppy, Sluss made the statement in the post.

Sluss, who rose to notoriety in 2020 when she appeared on Season 24 of “The Bachelor,” also gave Funk a social media shoutout after the Saints’ signing.

She said, “Nola, here we come!”

On TikTok, Sluss and Funk initially met. She stood with him during different games last year, including the Rams’ victory over the Bengals in the Super Bowl in February.
