That leaves us with one opening on the Practice Squad.

off the net from Ramgator
! Rams signed Reggie Northrup Jr LB to practice squad
I worked with his Dad, Reggie Sr, for almost 11 years on the Fire Dept, till he transferred to another station 4 months ago. Guys, this is a GREAT GREAT pick up!! He was one of FSU’s ALL TIME tacklers! And he wasn’t even used to his strengths?? I JUST talked to Reggie Sr on the phone. Jr has already worked with Singletary and met Fassel. Both KNOW that Reggie is also a TERROR on Special Teams. At LB, he is QUITE capable of sealing the outside and blitzing gaps. QUITE CAPABLE!
Even if he was not on the Rams, I’d be SOOOO happy for Reggie Jr AND Sr. I KNOW there has been MUCH hard work put in. The kid LOVES to play and is hungry as hell! Guy’s, we just picked up a late 1st / 2nd round LBer, talent wise! Jimbo Fisher did NOT use him to his strength. In fact FSU hardly even relies on the LB positions. But Reggie STILL produced big time.
THE best thing about him? HE TACKLES ON THE SPOT! He is also a great kid. ALWAYS “Yes Sir” or “No Sir” I’M STOKED!!!!
