Brycen Hopkins Suspended

[CGI_Ram]

True. Other than Powell surprisingly getting some of those rotational snaps I had earlier expected to go to Skow, Atwell & Harris.
Still wondering when we might expect to see Van Jefferson again ?

I kind of forgot about Powell getting those opportunities. Thanks for bringing that up.

Today is Wednesday so we should get first injury reports later.

Either Carter or start testing Harris at Tight End

Either Carter or start testing Harris at Tight End

Fuck it, let's do both

Am I right to assume this is recreational drug use since its specifically not PEDs? How dumb (or addicted and unwell) do you need to be to jeapordise an NFL career for a few lines of Coke?

Did we officially release him?

Release ? No, the League suspended him for 3 games.

I know I didn't enjoy his time with us. I still remember a play where he caught this long pass from Goff(?), but then honey badger stripped him near the endzone. He seemed to specialize in coming up small in big situations.

That was 2013, wk 1 with Bradford. He didn't go 100% the whole way and lost the ball.

Then the next season he got in a fight with Austin Davis on the sideline. Hence, you and I both not particularly enjoying his stint with the Rams.

Not as far as I have seen. There was confusion in Jourdan's thread where she was talking about the press release

 

[AZRams]

Release ? No, the League suspended him for 3 games.

The Tweet says we did, shortly after McVay's press conference, where I presume he discussed the suspension.

 

[baconandbread]

So Harris may not be an option as well...

Expecting Roger Carter in ... 3 - 2 - 1

Isn't he a fullback.

 

[Merlin]

Harris can still play with a cast. And if I'm him right now I'm telling McVay I'm his huckleberry at TE.

 

[Riverumbbq]

Isn't he a fullback

Depends on who you ask. In college he was listed as a FB with excellent receiving & blocking skills and a Special Teams demon, ... while preparing for the draft he marketed himself as more of a TE, but he has experience lining up in both positions.

Sounds like more than a few!

I interpreted the tweet to mean, the notification of the League suspension was "released" by the Rams following McVay's press conference. That being said, it was not the best of wording by Jourdan Rodrigue.

Ah ha!

With all the fentanyl deaths because of it being used as an unknown ingredient while mixed with other drugs sure makes it a life gamble that didn't exist when I 'dabbled' at that age.

For those of you confused.

I wonder if this is or was a habit it could account for his adapting to the pros slowly

 

[Psycho_X]

But yeah, I was on the move on from him bandwagon before he miraculously showed up in the super bowl. I’m hoping Carter can come in and kick some ass so when he’s unsuspended he’s still lost his #2 job.
