The Los Angeles Rams have experienced a myriad of injuries along the offensive line this season, prompting a handful of guys to step up in the absence of multiple starters. With Joe Noteboom suffering a season-ending Achilles injury, Alaric Jackson has stepped up and offensive coordinator Liam Coen has been thoroughly impressed with his performance at left tackle thus far.
“He’s just so steady. You never really see him get either which way, high or low, he’s pretty steady as he goes. I think he’s embraced the opportunity to play a position that he’s very passionate about and he did a nice job,” Coen said. “I thought he did a nice job last week and continued to develop at the tackle position, but he’s so steady, he’s a pro, he’s continuing to learn, obviously being a young player in this league, but really excited for him.”
