Rams’ young defense eyes Jets’ Aaron Rodgers as a chance for legendary performance
LA TimesRams Bobby Brown II, Kobie Turner, Byron Young and Michael Hoecht have been creating a bond since camp. So young Rams defensive players are eager for the opportunity to play against the future Hall of Famer on Sunday at MetLife Stadium in East Rutherford, N.J. “It’s one of those things,” rookie safety Kamren Kinchens said, “if I can pick him off, it’s a dream come true.” The Rams, winners of three games in a row, are atop the NFC West with an 8-6 record. “So to be able to line up across from him and try to make some plays, try to figure out how he reads me and vice versa, it’s going to be exciting.” Packers quarterback Aaron Rodgers celebrates a touchdown by running back AJ Dillon against the Rams in 2022. “He’s kind of seen everything.” Rodgers’ ball placement makes it especially difficult for defensive backs covering receivers. “They might be covered,” Shula said, “but really, they’re never covered, especially with Aaron Rodgers.” As of late, Rodgers appears to be recapturing some of his prime form.
