Probably but even if he doesn't the Rams won't suffer any loss.

It looks like bringing Kelly up means we won't be seeing Henderson this week.
I don’t think it means no Henderson, I think that neither Brown nor H can handle 20 carries.

No it means Gurley is out.

Henderson isn't going to see the field if they brought a guy from the PS to dress for a game.

The roster already had Brown and Henderson.

They need a third for this particular game?

I don't think so, I think Henderson is still not ready and they trust Kelly to block.

I’m sure they do trust Brown and Henderson. But you can’t roll with 2 RBs. Injuries happen and I believe they just need a 3rd guy in case.

If the game plan is to run up the middle early and often to slow their pass rush, (it should be imo) I think John Kelly can be a tough option and possibly the best option for us.

I think JK could surprise.

Yawn, until Kelly actually does something it really doesn't mean much. He really failed to show anything in his limited snaps. Both Kelly and Henderson are more like 3rd down backs in the NFL. Neither has looked like much more than that at best.

I'd rather have Webster than JoJo who will probably cost a game with a fumble. JoJo is a fumbler and everyone knows it so ST's will attack him in ways to force that turnover. He's not even reliable in a fair catch as he's fumbled them as well. Don't be so sure Webster clears waivers, as he showed speed, hands and the ability to separate. He's got 6.7 3 cone agility and 4.4 speed. If he was even an inch taller he would have been looked at as an outside receiver and probably would have been drafted.

Was thinking about this yesterday. If Gurley doesn't go and Brown gets nicked, you would have a rookie RB, who has not played, in there having to pick up blitzes. Yikes!

Thought this exact move might happen. Webster was the obvious move and just hope he clears.

It's about blitz pick up.... If Brown goes down, you have a rookie who has yet to play, protecting Goff on every blitz. Not gonna happen.

The two active running backs could easily be Henderson and Brown.
There's no guarantee Kelly will be dressed.

Well....this post was a regular ray of sunshine.

Henderson has 1 snap to his name in the NFL behind a starting Oline.

Kind of early to tag him as anything yet.
