    The Rams activated OL Coleman Shelton, RB Kyren Williams and S Quentin Lake out of IR designation. The Rams waived RB Malcolm Brown, who was on the injury report earlier this week.

    Raheem Morris loves what he’s seen from Derion Kendrick, but with Troy Hill and David Long Jr. fully back, the rookie could get fewer snaps

    Sean McVay said both G Coleman Shelton and RB Kyren Williams will play Sunday vs. Cardinals.

    Rams DB Jalen Ramsey gave an emphatic response to the criticism he’s seen of DC Raheem Morris just now. Re: “soft coverage” comments, Ramsey said Morris gives DBs the freedom to play press on some looks, off on other looks. (more in this thread)

    “He gives us the freedom to use all the tools that he’s taught us,” Ramsey said.

    Used analogy of how you use multiple tools, not just the best one, to build a house – DBs don’t use the same tool on every rep in a game to accomplish their goals.

    Ramsey: “We choose the techniques we want to play. We choose sometimes whether we want to press or whether we want to play off. At the end of the day, if y’all want to blame me, I don’t give a damn, blame me. But it ain’t Rah. I can tell you that.”

    Based on his explanation and the way I interpreted it, my guess is it could be because of the technique the DBs are choosing to play based on the look they’re getting. They’re also trying to limit explosive plays and keep stuff underneath

    Let’s do a recap of states with ballot measures that would change their constitutions to ban slavery and prison labor, according to an ABC News report.
    .
    Alabama: With 72 percent of expected votes in, Alabama voted for the removal of several Jim Crow-era sections of their state constitution, including one that allowed for slavery as criminal punishment, one that barred interracial marriage and one that separated schools for white and Black students. Some 77 percent of voters voted “yes,” but it is still notable that 23 percent, or close to 270,000 voters, were against this measure in a former pro-slavery state.
    .
    Louisiana: With 95 percent expected votes in, Louisiana voted against a constitutional amendment to remove language allowing slavery as punishment, with 60.9 percent voting no. That’s close to 800,000 voters against the measure. But according to reporting from ABC News, it seems like there was a lot of confusion in how the ballot measure was worded. State Rep. Edmond Jordan said he asked people to vote against it in hopes of bringing it back next year and making sure the language is clear and unambiguous.
    .
    Oregon: With 64 percent expected votes in, Oregon voted for the removal of constitutional language allowing slavery as punishment. It will also add language that authorizes officials to order alternatives to incarceration for a convicted individual as part of their sentencing. Just over 54 percent voted “yes,” with over 45 percent — or close to 640,000 Oregonians — voting “no.”
    Tennessee: With 68 percent expected votes in, the overwhelming majority of voters — 80 percent — voted for a measure to remove constitutional language allowing slavery as punishment. But it’s still notable that 20 percent — over 332,000 voters — voting against.
    .
    Vermont: Vermont’s proposal had the biggest support margin — with 89 percent of voters agreeing to prohibit slavery in the state constitution

    Everywhere access to abortion was on the ballot last night, voters overwhelmingly chose to protect that right. Today I am so grateful for the activists and advocates who worked to defend the rights of women to make their own decisions.

    You will hear a lot more from Charles Booker. Although our state newspapers all endorsed Booker against Ron Paul, the DNC would not give Booker a penny.
     We’re a poor state, preyed on by Rand Paul (Texan funded by Chinese, Russians, corps and insider trading,) Confronting him was Booker, young, Black, progressive, backed by state newspapers. DNC refused to help. Booker got 42% of vote anyway.

    The Rams designated iOL Coleman Shelton to return to practice. If available Sunday, he can play either of the guard positions.

    I have a really cool idea for turf vs grass study! Ask the people who actually perform and put their bodies at risk on it! We know how we feel on it. Injury or not! Beating it puts on body, how hard it is when helmet hits, footing, etc

    The Rams offense is averaging 16.38 ppg (third-lowest) and when the defense gets a 3/out or turnover on downs, the offense responds with a 3/out of their own on nearly 40% of possessions. It’s hard to imagine that’s real, but it is. Worst 3/out rate under McVay as a head coach.
    .
    Again, Rams offense has the worst three-and-out rate in the NFL through nine games, per a @TruMediaSports  query.
    .
    And. The defense is No. 10 in the NFL in three-and-out rate forced. Combine that with the stat in the quote tweet, whew.
