    Jimmy G will start Sunday, per Sean McVay. Stetson Bennett will be the backup. Rob Havenstein will be out. Rams still working through others

    Along with Matthew Stafford, the Rams will rest Cooper Kupp, Puka Nacua, Kyren Williams, Alaric Jackson and Kevin Dotson against Seattle. Sean McVay already ruled out Rob Havenstein (shoulder) earlier in the week.

    from https://theramswire.usatoday.com/2025/01/02/rams-playoffs-seed-sean-mcvay-rest-starters/?taid=6778a43817424100010b257a&utm_campaign=trueanthem&utm_medium=trueanthem&utm_source=twitter

    McVay believes there’s a benefit to having his top players rested for the playoff run, while also avoiding any possible injuries suffered in an otherwise meaningless season finale knowing the Rams have already clinched the division title.

    “While we want to finish the season strong, I think it does provide possibly the opportunity for guys to get some reps that they wouldn’t otherwise get and then guys that have had a bunch of wear and tear on their bodies to get fresh where it actually acts as a bye, if you will,” he continued. “Whether it be the right or wrong approach, I always do what we think is best and certainly it’s a collaborative effort in terms of making those decisions.”

    Blake Corum to RB1, Jonah Jackson to RG, Joe Noteboom to LT which would put Warren McClendon at RT. I bet Jordan Whittington and Xavier Smith see some of the backfield too.

    Sounds like some players, like Steve Avila and some defenders, will at least start before getting pulled.

    I saw the practice table somewhere, and it showed that Tutu did not participate due to personal reasons.

    Rams called up two players from practice squad and both of them could have a chance to contribute on Sunday afternoon against the Seahawks. The Rams elevated offensive tackle A.J. Arcuri and outside linebacker Keir Thomas on Saturday, adding them this week’s roster.

    I thought Arcuri played better than McClendon, but I am obviously wrong about that. McClendon is above him on the depth chart for a reason.

    The fact that I don’t know the first thing about football is the only reason I don’t have a front office job with the Rams.

    That didn’t stop Shaw or Zygmunt.
