There’s a good chance the Rams’ backup running back to Steven Jackson isn’t on the roster yet, but apparently Derrick Ward won’t be the guy.
Rams coach Steve Spagnuolo was in New York with Ward and called him during free agency 18 months ago. But Jim Thomas of the St. Louis Post-Dispatch reports the team doesn’t still appear to be interested.
The reason? The eye in the sky doesn’t lie.
“Simply stated, Ward looks awful on tape,” Thomas said. “One league source said he looks almost disinterested.”
Someone is always watching. And if the Rams aren’t interested, we doubt anyone will be watching Ward in an NFL uniform this year.
