The Rams’ competition at backup quarterback just got a little bit more interesting. Sean McVay told reporters after practice that John Wolford didn’t participate against the Bengals because during Wednesday’s session, he suffered an injury to the thumbnail on his throwing hand.
He said it was difficult for Wolford to grip the football, which is why the team held him out of practice today. McVay said if it was on his left hand or if he wasn’t a quarterback, it “would be a non-issue.” Unfortunately, his status for Saturday’s preseason finale is now unclear, which could mean Bryce Perkins gets all of the reps at quarterback again like he did in the opener against the Chargers.
