Los Angeles Rams: 3 positive factors over holding off on Lamarcus Joyner extension

As the Los Angeles Rams continue to prepare for the start of training camp in a few weeks, all eyes were on whether the team would pull off a surprise move on Monday by rewarding safety Lamarcus Joyner with an extension. Earlier in the offseason, the Rams decided to use the franchise tag on Joyner over Sammy Watkins after an impressive first season at safety after making the switch from cornerback.

With Monday’s deadline to give players under the tag an extension, Los Angeles decided to hold off on making the move with Joyner, and while some fans may seem frustrated over the move, it’s not the end of the world for the NFC West champions.
