Rams

Rams RB Blake Corum admitted that he is not sure how many carries he can expect to see as a rookie behind starting RB Kyren Williams.

โ€œIโ€™m not really sure. Iโ€™m not really sure,โ€ Corum said, via RamsWire.com. โ€œI know Iโ€™ve had a good camp and Kyrenโ€™s a phenomenal back, so we could just feed off each other. Anything to help the team. I donโ€™t know how many carries Iโ€™ll get. Maybe five, maybe 10, maybe more. I donโ€™t know, but Iโ€™ll be ready whenever the numberโ€™s called.โ€

Rams

Rams HC Sean McVay defended the decision to make RB Kyren Williams the team’s punt returner.

Kyren Williams is going to be our punt returner. It’s another opportunity for him to get touches and impact the game,” McVay said, via Around The NFL. “You feel comfortable with that because of the confidence in Blake Corum and Ronnie Rivers being able to spell him if need be. So that was what has made it tough for ‘X’. He didn’t do anything not to win the punt return job. It’s just Kyren is a guy that we want to continue to have different ways that he can impact the game and that’s one going to be reflected.
