Rookie offensive lineman Logan Bruss was put on injured reserve after suffering a season-ending knee injury in the second preseason game. There also could be roster shuffling because of the injury statuses of several players. “Keir Thomas was someone that we felt played overall just more complete football,” Snead said. Thomas, who played at Florida State, consistently pressured quarterbacks. Garrett was sidelined for much of training camp and the preseason because of injury. “We’ll definitely try and get Jacob back.” “Probably at the end of the day, Lance McCutcheon had a big part in maybe knocking Jacob off the roster in terms of just having a better preseason at wide receiver,” Snead said. Harris had five receptions for 28 yards in two games. McCutcheon, who played at Montana State, caught 15 passes for 259 yards and two touchdowns in three preseason games. The Rams have somewhat unusual configurations with three quarterbacks, two tight ends and six cornerbacks. He completed 35 of 49 passes for 399 yards and two touchdowns without an interception. Perkins made the roster for the second year in a row with his preseason performance. Arcuri, a seventh-round pick, also was waived. Wide receiver Jacob Harris and outside linebacker Chris Garrett, 2021 fourth- and seventh-round picks, respectively, were among the players waived. McVay and Snead trimmed the roster from 80 players to meet the NFL’s deadline as the defending Super Bowl champion Rams prepare for their season opener against the Buffalo Bills on Sept.

Quarterback Bryce Perkins and three rookie undrafted free agents - wide receiver Lance McCutcheon, inside linebacker Jake Hummel and outside linebacker Keir Thomas - were among the players who survived cuts and made the initial 53-man roster.
