Good thing the Rams stayed the course with DL A'Shawn Robinson

There were several fans that thought DT A'Shawn Robinson after the first 7 games was barely average to maybe okay.

There was also speculation that A'Shawn might be a good trading piece before the trade deadline because his play after the first 7 games didn't really add up to his salary.

I'm not doubting that his overall snap counts and performance over the first 7 games didn't warrant some of these thoughts.

A'Shawn has pretty much only been a rotational run stopping piece in the Rams DL rotation this season.

The Rams recently received bad news about their 2nd best interior defensive lineman Joseph-Day.

Maybe it was a fluke but the Rams (appeared to have misdiagnosed) their surging DT Sebastian Joseph-Day's pec injury.

Joseph-Day injured his pec during vs the Lions and was expected to miss a game or 2 based on the diagnoses from the Rams medical and training staff.

Sebastian's stat line vs the Lions in week 7 was 5 tackles, 3 solo, 1 sack, 1 Tackle for loss.

Why did the Rams medical and training staff think Joseph-Day's pec injury was only a one or two week issue?

Why did they clear him to practice this week if there were any tiny indications he should maybe heal up until after the bye week?

I'm not happy with their diagnoses of his pec. Maybe it was a fluke but now he needs surgery and seems to be lost for the rest of the regular season.

Did the Rams take the correct precautions with Joseph-Day? Was there an MRI done on his pec?

Fluke or not, I'm very happy the Rams stayed the course with A'Shawn Robinson. He maybe had his best game last Sunday at the Texans.

Hoping Bobby Brown III is ready to grow up fast and become a pro as his snap counts might start piling up over the next month.


Rooting hard for you A'Shawn Robinson to play more consistent and help Greg Gaines compensate for the loss of Joseph-Day.
