Rams
Rams GM Les Snead said the Rams will have open competition for the starting quarterback role between Nickย Foles, Case Keenum, Sean Mannion, or any other offseason additions they potentially make.
“If I learned one thing last year we should have let the quarterbacks have a competition from the start and the best man win instead of just passing the torch to Nick,” said Snead, via Alex Marvez.
Snead admitted that Foles success in Philadelphia prompted the Rams’ decision early on in the 2015 season to declareย himย the team’s starting quarterback.
“He obviously had a lot of success at Philly and it was proven so we brought him in,” said Snead. “As you go through things with a new quarterback and he’s learning a new system there’s going to be some growing pains whether it’s in OTAs or training camp.
“You saw that a little bit but, hey, we open up and beat Seattle and went to Arizona and won. He did some good things for us. We just ran into a slump there in the middle of the year.”
- Rams HC Jeff Fisher will interview coaching candidates this week to fill the remaining spots on his staff. (Alex Marvez)
