Maybe Lance McCutcheon wasn’t such a surprising pick for the final 53-man roster after all. The Los Angeles Rams will never every wide receiver they can get and need to have Odell Beckham Jr.’s rehab under daily monitoring to see if he can re-sign any time soon.
That’s because the Rams officially placed Van Jefferson on injured reserve on Saturday, strangely waiting after almost three weeks to put the receiver on the list. By waiting until now, Jefferson will have to miss at least the next month before being eligible to be activated again. Sean McVay noted once that Jefferson has had no setbacks in his recovery process and yet he has gone from “day to day” to being placed on IR.
