Rams’ talk is, Florida State rookies will need to be difference-makers on defense
LA TimesRams rookie Jared Verse would like the ball carriers to head his way. That’s been great so far and I’m just excited to see where we can take it.” Verse, 6 feet, 4 inches and 260 pounds, and the 6-4, 291-pound Fiske will play significant roles for a remade Rams defense aiming to show doubters it can thrive despite the retirement of future Hall of Fame lineman Aaron Donald and the recent trade of linebacker Ernest Jones IV. Said Shula, a few workouts later: “Exactly what we saw at Florida State.” Verse and Fiske impressed during training camp workouts, and during joint practices with the Dallas Cowboys, Chargers and Houston Texans. “Whenever Jared gets anywhere near a quarterback,” Turner said, laughing, “he’s talking.” The chatter is unmistakable, Young said. “He’s definitely that guy you hear.” Verse, who transferred to Florida State from Albany, was the Rams’ first first-round pick since 2016, the year they selected quarterback Jared Goff No.
