Rams Cut Cornelius Lucas, Place Ryan Davis On IR
The Rams are the latest team to start the cut down to 53 players, which must be completed by Saturday afternoon. Los Angeles made the following transactions:
Released:
Waived:
- Fred Brown, WR
- Omarius Bryant, DT
- Chunky Clements DT
- Jake Eldrenkamp, C
- Sam Ficken, K
- Lord Hyeamang, DT
- Nate Holley, DB
- Nick Holley, RB
- Jeremiah Kolone, G
- Marcus Martin, DE
- Codey McElroy, WR
- Curtis Mikell, DB
- McKay Murphy, DT
- JoJo Natson, WR
- Aaron Neary, C
- Taurean Nixon, DB
- Tegray Scales, LB
- Darrell Williams, T
- Brian Womac, DE
Waived/injured:
- Afolabi Laguda, DB
- Kendal Thompson, WR
Placed on injured reserve:
- Ryan Davis, DE
- Morgan Fox, DE
Lucas could have conceivably given the Rams a bit of depth at offensive tackle, as he has 35 career games under his belt (although he’s played in only six contests over the past two seasons). Davis, meanwhile, flashed during training camp and may have been an option on the edge if not for injury.
