FootballOutsiders on the health of Rams OL

May 17, 2019 05:27AM
"The average team suffered 17.2 AGL (adjusted games lost) to its offensive line, the most on record, passing the 16.7 set in both 2016 and 2017. This one is definitely not related to any change in how we counted situational players, since no "situational" lineman plays enough to get counted. Offensive linemen are getting hurt more often than ever before … which makes what's going on in Los Angeles even more amazing. The Rams had just 0.1 AGL by offensive linemen last season, after suffering just 0.8 offensive line AGL in 2017. That's two full seasons of football (plus playoffs!) and not even one total missed game by offensive linemen. That's ridiculous. We'll see what happens in 2019 with two new starters after the Rams declined a contract option on center John Sullivan, while left guard Rodger Saffold signed with Tennessee in free agency."
