The Rams deferred further comment on Alaric Jackson‘s suspension to Sean McVay’s postgame presser on Saturday. On a football note, Joe Noteboom and Warren McClendon have been getting reps at LT while Jackson has been out with an ankle injury.
Jackson, scheduled to earn $4.9 million this season after he signed a one-year, restricted free-agent tender, has been sidelined for weeks because of an ankle sprain suffered early in training camp. Veteran Joe Noteboom and second-year pro Warren McClendon Jr. have worked at left tackle in Jackson’s absence.
Jackson’s suspension further complicates the offensive line situation ahead of the Sept. 8 opener at Detroit.
Starting left guard Jonah Jackson has not practiced in team drills since early in camp because of a shoulder injury. Right tackle Rob Havenstein has been sidelined because of an ankle injury.
I don’t know how McClendon and Noteboom have been looking in camp and during intersquad practices, but with Jackson out and Havenstein a possibility to be out I am expecting a rough couple of weeks out the gate. The Lions and Niners are tough teams to face with back ups starting at both tackle positions. Never mind not knowing how ready Jonah Jackson is going to be.
