Practice Report: Special Visitors Stop by Ahead of Week 3

Kristen Lago

The Rams wrapped up a non-padded practice on Thursday morning as the team gears up for Week 3 of the preseason. Today’s session was the Rams last before they kick off at the Coliseum on Saturday night.

A LIGHT-HARTED PRACTICE

Thursday’s practice saw the addition of two extra “players” on the field, when comedian Kevin Hart and actor Scott Eastwood stopped by to join in on the workout.

While having Hart and Eastwood on field two days before a gameday may have seemed like a distraction to some coaches, Rams head coach Sean McVay said their presence did not affect the “team’s ability to get what we wanted” out of the day. Plus, the duo added some energy.

“We all know what a great entertainer he is, so it was fun to have those guys around,” McVay said. “It ended up being a positive thing for us...it also loosened things up a bit in the environment. It’s always good to remember that while we want to be structured and we’re always mindful of that, you can still have fun.”

Hart and Eastwood made their rounds in the early portions of practice, participating in every position group’s individual drills, from the wide receivers to the defensive linemen. Hart also spent some time attempting to field punts and finished up practice racing wide receiver K.D. Cannon in a 40-yard dash. Unfortunately for the comedian, he could not catch any of the punts, nor could he beat Cannon in the race.
