He was released today by the Rams, after sitting out the game against the Hawks.
In Ramland "he never quite fit in".
And the Rams have been busy at WR with T. Austin, S. Bailey, Quck, Givens, and added K. Britt and TE Jared Cook ...
and are getting a ground game in gear as you may have noticed Sunday.
For some reason that receiving corps looks stronger than that of the Hawks.
Tick, tick, tick ....

I'll put him on my watch list. We do need an upgrade over Walters on special teams, although as long as he doesn't turn the ball over, I can live with him. I notice that we have Walters returning kickoffs, too.
Our WR corps is very thin on experience, and one of those rookies, Richardson and/or Norwood, is going to have to rise to the occasion. So far, Richardson has caught everything close enough for him to touch. One of the raps on him was that he sometimes loses concentration, and at least to this point, I haven't seen it.
Nice to see you again, SBB! I hope you're here for more than a cup of coffee.
