There were already some concerns about the Rams’ offensive line coming into this season after losing Andrew Whitworth (retirement) and Austin Corbett (free agency). They replaced those two players with Joe Noteboom and Coleman Shelton, but just one week into the regular season, the Rams are already being forced to make a change.
Brian Allen injured his knee in Week 1 and will miss 2-4 weeks. The ripple effect is Shelton moving from right guard to center, and Tremayne Anchrum Jr. stepping in at right guard. Anchrum is making his first career start and while the expectations have to be managed, Shelton might be a better fit at center than guard.
