Many teams would like to emulate the Rams¡¯ success on
offense.But this is the Bengals we¡¯re talking
about
Michael
Brockers Jersey , so today¡¯s interviews with Rams assistants Zac Taylor
and Shane Waldron may be about double-dipping to make the cost of the plane
ticket to Los Angeles a bit more palatable.According to Tom Pelissero of the NFL
Network, the Bengals will meet with both Taylor and Waldron today.Taylor, their
35-year-old quarterbacks
coach
Ethan
Westbrooks Jersey , has also been linked to the Broncos and Cardinals
searches.Waldron, their 39-year-old tight ends coach and passing game
coordinator, hasn¡¯t cropped up publicly in connection with any other team. He¡¯s
a former Patriots football ops guy who followed Charlie Weis to Notre Dame in
2005
John Sullivan
Jersey , and has also worked in the UFL and at the University of
Massachusetts before spending a year with Washington. After the Super Bowl, Rams
left tackle Andrew Whitworth said he was unsure if he had just played his last
game. He remains unsure about continuing to play or retiring.Peter King writes
in today¡¯s that the Rams are praying Whitworth comes back for one more season,
but he¡¯s still taking his time and plans to meet with the team after the
Scouting Combine to discuss his future.Whitworth is set to make $10.7 million in
2019
Cory Littleton
Jersey , which is a good deal for a good left tackle. If Whitworth walks
away, the Rams might have to trust 2018 third-round pick Joseph Noteboom, who
played in all 16 games last season but didn¡¯t start
any
Nickell
Robey-Coleman Jersey , to take over the left tackle job.Complicating
matters is that left guard Rodger Saffold may leave in free agency. If the Rams
lost both their left guard and their left tackle, that would raise some big
questions about the protection Jared Goff will get, and leave a big hole in the
NFC champion¡¯s offense.
