    I expected them to add Washington to the roster.

    Rams’ busy day goes beyond trade
    By Nick Wagoner

    EARTH CITY, Mo. — With injuries piling up, the St. Louis Rams did more roster shuffling than their trade for safety Mark Barron on Tuesday.

    It was a busy day at Rams Park as the Rams made a series of tweaks to their active roster and their practice squad.

    Most noteworthy was the expected move to place left tackle Jake Long on injured reserve after he suffered a second ACL tear in as many seasons in Sunday’s game against the Kansas City Chiefs. To replace him, the Rams promoted linebacker Korey Toomer from the practice squad. Toomer just signed with the Rams last week.

    The Rams also created another opening on their active roster by releasing quarterback Case Keenum. With Keenum gone, Barron steps into that vacated roster spot. Receiver Brian Quick is expected to go to injured reserve also, meaning the Rams will likely make another addition to the active roster in the next 24 hours or so.

    Meanwhile, on the practice squad, the Rams also released quarterback Garrett Gilbert and lost offensive tackle Mike Remmers to Carolina’s active roster. After subtracting Keenum and Gilbert, the Rams now have just two quarterbacks on the roster in the form of Shaun Hill and Austin Davis though it’s possible Keenum could be brought back to the practice squad should he clear waivers.

    As it stands, the Rams also have three openings on the practice squad though they’re expected to fill one with offensive tackle Steven Baker.

    I have 2 practice squad openings after promoting Washington, I think Thomas means we had one before that. We will see. This stuff is sometimes a bit hard to keep up with.

    Here is the extra move. I guess we are just waiting on Keenum now.

    Rams promote guard Washington to 53-man roster
    2 hours ago • By Jim Thomas jthomas@post-dispatch.com 314-340-8197

    The Rams promoted offensive guard Brandon Washington from the practice squad on Wednesday filling the final opening on their 53-man roster. Washington 6-2, 318, takes the roster spot created by placing wide receiver Brian Quick on the injured reserve list with a season-ending shoulder injury.

    Washington, 26, entered the league as a sixth-round draft choice by Philadelphia in 2012 out of the University of Miami (Fla.). He spent the entire 2012 season on the Rams’ practice squad. Last season, he spent 10 games on the Rams’ 53-man roster in two stints sandwiched around a six-week stay on the practice squad.

    Washington finally got to play his first NFL game in the 2013 season finale at Seattle, playing 17 snaps at guard.

    The team also added TE Justice Cunningham, WR Emory Blake, and OG Travis Bond to their practice squad, and confirmed the signing of OT Steven Baker to the practice squad. They still have one spot open on the practice squad, and it’s anticipated that that spot will go to QB Case Keenum if he clears waivers later this afternoon.

    Cunningham and Bond were with the team in training camp but didn’t survive the final cut. Cunningham was waived injured with a high ankle sprain he suffered in the preseason finale. Blake was released from the practice squad Oct. 20, after showing up late for a team meeting.
