Andrew Whitworth held down the left tackle position for five years with the Rams, but his retirement this offseason led to a change. In stepped Joe Noteboom, fresh off signing a $40 million extension.
Noteboom unfortunately tore his Achilles in Week 6 and will miss the rest of the season, thrusting Alaric Jackson into the starting role. Jackson excelled in Noteboom’s place against the Panthers two weeks ago, and he’s unquestionably the Rams’ best option at that position.
