The Rams have a new linebacker on the roster.
The NFL’s daily transaction report shows that they were awarded linebacker Sterling Weatherford off of waivers. Weatherford was cut loose by the Bears earlier this week.
Weatherford played in 14 games for the Bears last season and saw all 224 of his snaps on special teams. He was credited with four tackles in those appearances.
The wire also shows that the Rams have placed tight end Hunter Long and tackle Warren McLendon on the physically unable to perform list. Both players are ineligible to practice while on the list, but can be activated at any point this summer.
#HelmetHornsMatter
“Well, the color is good, I like the metallic blue,” Youngblood recently said while laughing, via NFL Journal. “The horn is terrible. It looks like a ‘C.’ When I first saw it on the logo I honestly thought it was a Charger logo.
“Now when I see it on the helmet, it just isn’t a ram horn. There is no distinct curl like a mature ram horn. I don’t know how the Rams could get that wrong. That is your symbol and it has been for what? Seventy years or more? Longer than I have been alive? It’s just not us, it’s not the Rams.”---Mr. Ram Jack Youngblood
