Garrett Reynolds offers calming presence in replacing Rodger Saffold

EARTH CITY, Mo. -- With Rodger Saffold lost for the season because of shoulder surgery, the St. Louis Rams will turn to the one backup on the roster with extensive NFL experience to replace him.

That would be seventh-year veteran Garrett Reynolds, a free-agent offseason addition from Detroit. After playing the first four games with the same five offensive linemen in place, Reynolds got his first extended action with the offense last week in Green Bay when he came in for Saffold.

According to coach Jeff Fisher, Reynolds fared well upon entering the game.
