    Report: Trumaine Johnson collides with Rams WR, exits OTAs

    The one player the Rams defense needs on the field had to leave one today.

    According to multiple reports, cornerback Trumaine Johnson suffered a “nasty” collision with a receiver at Friday’s OTAs.

    It sounds like the Rams caught a break with their franchise player, though:

    Rams cornerback Trumaine Johnson was in a pretty nasty collision during OTA’s today. He walked off the field on his own, though.

    Pretty intense collision w/#Rams CB Trumaine Johnson –
    and a WR on a crossing pattern just now. Johnson went down and had to leave practice

    Seemed like a helmet-to-helmet blow to Trumaine Johnson, but didn’t get a clear look.

    After Johnson, the Rams’ cornerback depth chart features E.J. Gaines, Coty Sensabaugh, and Lamarcus Joyner. They’re serviceable, but nowhere near No. 22’s talent.

    The good news? If he misses some time — and he probably will — it’ll happen now instead of September.

    We’ll keep you updated with any new developments.

    No there’s also Marcus Roberson and Troy Hill, and rookies Jabriel Washington and I believe Mike Jordan. So that’s 7 after Johnson.

    And Gaines is not behind Johnson, he’s the other starting CB.

    “Ramswire.” Right. How about “Rams sports blog not as good as an average message board.”

    From off the link to facebook, they said Joyner has played some CB and is doing well. The WRs complain about going against him in press coverage.

    Yeah I believe Joyner played some CB last year too.

    WAGONER: some of the guys that I heard the most to keep an eye on included safety Brian Randolph and defensive backs Jabriel Washington (who Rams linebacker Mark Barron vouched for from a brief overlap at Alabama) and Mike Jordan.

    Quotes on Mike Jordan:

    He can play both corner and safety and his versatility and ball skills will make him a hard man for Fisher to move on from as those are two things he loves.

    …

    Missouri Western defensive back Mike Jordan, a consensus first-team All-American and one of the top D2 players in the country regardless of position. At 6-0, 200 pounds with a 4.60 40-yard dash, Jordan is a well-built DB prospect with good enough speed to play inside at nickel or as a safety, and showed that he has the ability to also play outside at the cornerback position, and play it really well…
