i went to the Panthers / Rams game on Sunday… i keyed on Jerimiah Kolone alot of the game…. he wiffed a lot of blocks and got manhandled early on but got better as the game progressed…
When defense took the field, the coaches sat with Kolone with their computer tablet to constantly review and coach up the 3rd string center…. coaches constantly worked with the OL, especially Kolone while the defense took the field.
mis-direction blocks seemed to work to help the Rams move the ball in the 2nd half
Ironically, 2 false start penalties were on the veteran Havenstein… not sure if the delay of game penalties were because of Kolone or Stafford…
I’m pulling hard for this Kolone kid… i remember him very well from SJSU and remember when he broke his leg his senior year… he played all OL positions at SJSU…
Went undrafted, signed with Rams on practice squad in 2019.. kept getting cut.. he then went back home San Diego to join the police force.. he was half way through the police academy when the Rams called him back last year for the practice squad for the SB run (those guys get a ring too)
This year, he got the gig and some serious play time… I hope this “Rudy” story works out for him….
