Rams confirmed that Jamon Brown has been suspended for first two regular-season games for violation of substance-abuse policy. Big blow, loss of starting right guard.
Jamon Brown was a rock for the Rams last year so it’s tough to say who will replace him at right guard, although presumably Austin Blythe and Aaron Neary get long looks. This is tough, given how the O-line was such a big part of what the Rams did last season.

So much for the offensive line returning completely intact.
That open OG position will be something to watch in training camp. Austin Blythe performed when needed last year. Maybe a promising rookie can push for a look, however?

49ers’ LB Reuben Foster fined and suspended without pay for the first two games of the 2018 regular season for violating the NFL’s Conduct and Substances of Abuse policies.

I will never understand how billionaire team owners have convinced the public that the players, who put their bodies on the line every week and make less than 50% of league revenue, are the “ungrateful” ones.
