Just reactivated from IR, LA Rams third-year offensive lineman Joseph Noteboom passes a trial by fire

The LA Rams are back to filling starting positions on the offensive line. With time running out in the first half of the Rams-Seattle Seahawks game, disaster struck. Veteran offensive tackle Andrew Whitworth, the Rams star and future HOF offensive lineman, has torn the PCL in his left knee and will miss some serious time.

While there is a chance he could heal up and return for the playoffs, it forces third-year offensive lineman Joseph Noteboom, who came back from IR this week, into the starting left tackle role.
