Rams initial 53-man roster set, but more changes are coming

The Los Angeles Rams cut down their roster to 53 players Tuesday, but more changes will inevitably unfold. I still think it’s beneficial for whoever your backup is to be able to get those reps on the look team, and every now and then sprinkle him in.” Offensive line Alaric Jackson, Steve Avila, Coleman Shelton, Joe Noteboom, Rob Havenstein, Tremayne Anchrum, Kevin Dotson, Brian Allen, Zach Thomas, Warren McClendon The surprise here was the Rams keeping 10 offensive linemen, for now. As I reported last week, when Havenstein missed the joint practices with the Denver Broncos due to a neck stinger, it was not Bruss who filled in for him at right tackle but Zach Thomas — a sign that Bruss was losing the “roster math” battle. Receiver Cooper Kupp, Van Jefferson, Tutu Atwell, Puka Nacua, Demarcus Robinson, Ben Skowronek Keeping six receivers makes sense because of the running backs who can contribute on special teams and in the passing game, and because all of the Rams’ four tight ends currently on this roster are mismatches in the passing game. Defensive line Aaron Donald, Kobie Turner, Bobby Brown III, Larrell Murchison, Jonah Williams, Desjuan Johnson, Earnest Brown IV This group was tough to figure out, not only because of all of the young players but also because it’s hard to believe the Rams will leave it as-is heading into the season.
