The Rams have decided to keep three QBs on their initial roster, according to multiple sources with knowledge. That means former UDFA Bryce Perkins, who played and impresses nearly the entire preseason, will be on the initial 53-man roster along with QB2 Wolford and QB1 Stafford.

I think one thing that became a big factor here was the fact that Perkins, who did not actually run any of the scout team last season and therefore hardly got any reps (Wolford's job), showed that he had picked up a command of this offensive system in his first "real" reps. https://t.co/K8lMHrq4Cr

I only see one punter at practice this morning and it’s Johnny Hekker. No update yet from team on official COVID status (though he is out here so), or on spring and summer challenger Corey Bojorquez so everyone just hang tight. https://t.co/eSmhOUj4Om

Rookie WR Ben Skowronek is out here and practicing in a red non-contact jersey FWIW.

August 31, 2021 at 2:45 pm #131843AgamemnonParticipantI do not see OL Tremayne Anchrum, which is a surprise to me, nor do I see ILB Micah Kiser.

Safeties I see practicing this morning are Jordan Fuller, Taylor Rapp, Terrell Burgess, Nick Scott and JR Reed, as expected.
— Jourdan Rodrigue (@JourdanRodrigue) August 31, 2021
Cornerbacks I see practicing this morning are Jalen Ramsey, Darious Williams, David Long and Robert Rochell, as expected. Burgess’ ability also helps the numbers and depth here.

WRs I see practicing this morning are Cooper Kupp, Robert Woods, Van Jefferson, Desean Jackson, Tutu Atwell and Ben Skowronek (red no-contact).

A’Shawn Robinson (knee) and Obo Okoronkwo (shoulder) both present but not practicing. Both able to ride the exercise bikes.

OL I saw practicing this morning were: Andrew Whitworth, David Edwards, Brian Allen, Austin Corbett, Rob Havenstein, Joe Noteboom, Alaric Jackson, Bobby Evans and Max Pircher. Pircher can be exempt from a practice squad roster spot as an IPP player, FWIW.
— Jourdan Rodrigue (@JourdanRodrigue) August 31, 2021
DL I saw practicing this morning were: Aaron Donald, Sebastian Joseph-Day, Greg Gaines, Bobby Brown, Jonah Williams, Michael Hoecht. A'Shawn Robinson was present but did not practice as he recovers from a knee injury.

Jones hurt his ankle in last week's preseason game and while McVay said he felt like he was OK, we have not received an update there yet so bears monitoring. Jones, to me, would be a surprise cut.

The three RBs I see at practice this morning are Darrell Henderson, Sony Michel and Jake Funk.

August 31, 2021 at 3:13 pm #131847AgamemnonParticipantIf Cowboys were monitoring the Rams’ punter situation to see if Johnny Hekker would become available, little now to see. He restructured his contract and will remain in Los Angeles, sources said. Bryan Anger looks locked into Week 1 punter job for Dallas.

August 31, 2021 at 3:16 pm #131848AgamemnonParticipantAugust 31, 2021 at 3:48 pm #131850AgamemnonParticipantI can definitely confirm that Hekker and the Rams have discussed restructuring his deal, which previously had a cap hit of $4.9 million in 2021, but my impression is there's currently a bit of a delay in officializing roster spot because Hekker is still on the COVID/reserve list. https://t.co/FjXTofQ3ly
