The Rams spent a second round pick on offensive lineman Rodger Saffold in April's draft. Six weeks later and he's got an injury.
According to the Rams official Twitter feed, Saffold suffered a sprained knee at the Rams OTAs.
They say he's "likely" to miss the rest of OTAs -- which only run for a couple more weeks -- and the move is being described as "precautionary" and that he could return. At this point, there's no reason to push it considering training camp is two months away.
This is too bad for Rams fans, who were hoping he could come in and contribute quickly, according to Turf Show Times.
Saffold looks like a natural for the right side, where he can use his well-regarded run blocking ability. He could even move to the left in a pinch.
