Jeff Fisher ended OTAs w/offensive and defensive linemen going at each other in punt catching competition. D-Line caught 5 punts, O-line, 2
. . .LB Ray Ray Armstrong, C Scott Wells, LT Jake Long (but he did some individual drills), DT Michael Brockers, DT William Hayes.
Those not practicing Thurs: WR Jamaine Sherman, S Christian Bryant, S Maurice Alexander (knee surgery), RB Chase Reynolds (sports hernia). .
QB Sam Bradford worked back-to-back practices for the first time during OTAs. Looked as sharp Thurs. as he has all spring.
WR Kenny Britt was back at practice after leaving late in Tuesday practice.
Daniels hadn't done "team" drills all offseason as he rehabbed from knee surgery.
CB Trumaine Johnson, S Matt Daniels, DT Kendall Langford back on the practice field Thurs. Johnson and Langford missed Tues.
Rodger Saffold worked at LT today in 11-on-11 drills, with Davin Joseph working with the starters at RG.
Some injured players will have to stay around for a bit to rehab injuries.
Rookies do have to stay tomorrow at Rams Park, and then head to the rookie symposium.
Fisher anticipates the only player who may be dicey for start of training camp is rookie S Christian Bryant, who's rehabbing college injury.
Rams off the practice field. OTAs are over for 2014. (Jeff Fisher cancels Friday's scheduled session.)

Couple of nice plays from WR Stedman Bailey today, including a diving touchdown catch in 7 on 7s.
QB Sam Bradford got more work than usual in Thursday's practice. Says he feels good after participating in two practices this week.
A couple of O-line tweaks in Thursday practice: Saffold worked at LT with Davin Joseph at RG with the 1st team. Barrett Jones got work at C.
That's in addition to OT Jake Long, of course. Fisher has said expectation is for Long to be ready about midway through camp.
According to Jeff Fisher, only S Christian Bryant might not be ready to start training camp among those sitting out recently.
Safety Matt Daniels did return to practice Thursday after sitting out a few.
Not practicing Thurs.: WR Sherman, S Bryant, S Alexander, RB Reynolds, LB Armstrong, DE S. Brown, C Wells, OT Long, DT Brockers, DE Hayes.
WR Kenny Britt and CB Darren Woodard, both of whom left practice early Tuesday were back participating Thursday.
#Rams just finished their ninth and final OTA. Coach Jeff Fisher canceled Friday's session. Team will reconvene in July for training camp.
