The LA Rams special teams are holding competitive tryouts once more. Thankfully, this year the team does not need to find a new full-time placekicker with almost no time to assess and process, but rather the organization is bringing in a different specialist. You see, in the offseason, the LA Rams lost another veteran special teams player, long snapper Jake McQuaide, to the Dallas Cowboys.

McQuaide joins former ST coordinator John Fassel (a.k.a. Bones), former assistant ST coach Matt Daniels, and former placekicker Greg Zuerlein (a.k.a. The Leg). That leaves the LA Rams in need of deciding who will be this year’s starting long snapper.
