Ben Skowronek isn’t your typical receiver. By no means is he a game-changing pass catcher, but his newfound versatility as a wideout-fullback hybrid has really provided a spark for the Rams on offense.
He showed off that unique skillset on one play Sunday against the Cardinals. Lined up tight to the formation, Skowronek chipped J.J. Watt before going out for his route. But he didn’t just chip Watt. He laid him out, putting him on his back. Skowronek then caught a pass for a 4-yard gain on second-and-9.
