===Draft===
Corbin was selected in the 2nd round of the 2016 NFL Draft by the St. Louis Rams. Corbin was the 1st free safety taken in this draft, but many criticized the choice because of Corbin's weight. Corbin signed a 4 year, $18 million deal.

====2016 Season====
Corbin slotted right into the starting free safety position. The corner piece of a revamped Rams secondary, Corbin was the overlapping blanket which allowed his fellow corners Keith Wells and Isaiah Polsfoot the chances to be aggressive and go for interceptions. Corbin racked up some interceptions as well, playing a deep, roaming role as Coach Time and DC Dacder's schemes gave Corbin plenty of flexibility. Unfortunately in week 10 against the San Francisco 49ers, Corbin injured his ribs and was placed on season ending IR.
====2017 Season====
Corbin recovered from his ribs injury fully and came ready for the 2017 season. Paired with Rams first round pick Brandon Sauter, Corbin did not need to make the game saving tackles that this team relied on him for in 2016. With less opportunities, it became more and more evident that the Rams were using Sauter as a cover all guy and leaving Corbin for pick offs and pass disruptions. It worked with some success against the pass, but it was absolutely terrible against the run. In week 12 against the Atlanta Falcons, Corbin once again went down with a season ending injury, this time an ACL tear. Corbin would be placed on season ending IR for the second year in a row. In the offseason, Corbin was traded to the Denver Broncos.
