Right. Rivers is a known commodity. Why waste reps on him when you can use them to evaluate the rest. Rivers can go to the PS and be called on when needed. I really think unless Hunter shows more he could go to the PS as well. So if Connors continues to shine, he could end up on the roster. We will have to see how he is used or not used in the last pre-season game.

Maybe.

In 2025 Ronnie Rivers got 2 carries in the first preseason game.
But I don't see any stats at all for the next two preseason games.

He didn't make the final cut and was added to the practice squad.

Yeah, like I said, I'm saying most likely safe is all. There's absolutely a lane where he gets cut. Don't know that it's crazy wide.

There could also be some shenanigans in week 1 to allow for other teams to set their rosters and the Rams ulitmately getting the PS squad they want. The PS is never really set till after week 1.

I did. And these three things are not the same. You aren't paying attention to the details.

Well, since you know so much about what I'm "paying attention to", can you read my future or maybe give me the winning Powerball numbers?

I'll even split the Powerball winnings with you. ;)

As far as Rivers goes.. I just don't think there's anything for the Rams to learn by playing him.
I think that means he's safe.. UNLESS.. someone shows out big in preseason and practices.

Agreed. McVay knows what he can do. He could be headed to the PS.

I dunno... here's some college highlights that look like his game is translating to the NFL quite nicely -- lookit all these stinking swing / slant / wheel / screen passes, or whatever I'm not a football technician:

But what a great 3rd down back he could be for us. KW & BC can catch the rock too, no problems there... but watch this kid's burst when he sees a hole, and patience to let one open up. One run, he literally completely stops for about 0.5 sec's & waits for it to open up.
I def want him on the 53, no question about it.

BETTER keep.
 
Each year, I PVR Rams pre-season games from the NFL Network. Since they are too stupid or don't care to not show the Rams score on their live ticker at the bottom of the screen, I need to block the screen with my custom piece of cardboard.

Thus, every August, I have to tape this piece of cardboard onto my TV in order to block the ticker, so I don't see the final score of the PVR'ed Rams game that I am currently watching. Thanks NFL Network.

Could be another UDFA gem like Austin Ecklar. They have similar traits, versatile, can do the dirty work, including special teams, I would assume.
