CB Robert Rochell hurt his wrist on a punch-out yesterday, and will have surgery per McVay. Timeline TBD but procedure is this week.
I didn’t get the impression that it will be a super long absence for Rochell, for what that’s worth
Bobby Brown III suffered a UCL injury (thumb) and will also have surgery this week but is expected to return to the field shortly after that procedure, per McVay.
Here’s something cool: Rams QBs and centers were working on exchanges just now, and Nick Jones - Matthew Stafford’s former center at UGA, now an assistant coach for the Rams - took some extra time on a few details with Stafford and new starting center Austin Corbett.
Rookie TE Jacob Harris is slowly working back into things. Is able to participate in individuals today.
OK not trying to cause a fuss but Harris (bc recovering from a core injury) has lined up behind everybody to take the last rep, which a backup QB would normally throw. But on his rep the Rams switched back in Matthew Stafford, who delivered a gorgeous 30-yder to his back shoulder
Jalen Ramsey vs Desean Jackson in one-on-ones on a deep ball was exactly the rep this crowd wanted to see. Ramsey PBU
Robert Woods is having a DAY out here so far. Crowd loving it.
Jalen Ramsey. Red zone. Pick six. Aaaaaalllllll the way to the other end zone.
Oh my goodness - and the offense gets one back. Stafford handled a bobbled snap, re-set, flushed and threw a dart on the run to Cooper Kupp in traffic for the score. This is goooood stuff.
Ok this guy is just showing off now. Looking toward the EZ corner route (and the beer garden!), Stafford quick-fires a pass to Henderson up the middle.
I’m standing in the corner of the end zone and just stared down the barrel of a Stafford side-arm throw AMA
Matthew Stafford strikes Robert Woods on a long touchdown in “move the ball” period and McVay sprints downfield to celebrate - that one was enough to get the guys out a few minutes early. Fun, fun day - notes coming soon over at
