Rams Place C Scott Wells On New IR

Found September 10, 2012 on GridironFans.com: Yardbarker Blogger Network
PLAYERS: Scott Wells,  Jeff Fisher,  Robert Turner,  Rodger Saffold
TEAMS: St. Louis Rams
Rams C Scott Wells suffered a fractured foot and will be placed on the "designated for return" injured reserve, head coach Jeff Fisher said Monday.

Wells started in Sunday’s loss to the Lions in his first game with St. Louis. Robert Turner replaced Wells at center. The new I.R. “designated to return” rule for players with major injuries allows Wells to return to a game after eight weeks.

After spending eight seasons with the Packers, Wells signed a four-year, $24 million contract with the Rams in March.

The Rams also lost starting OLT Rodger Saffold to a neck injury in Sunday’s game.

Via The Football Fan Spot  |  September 11, 2012
Last week: 12 (+0) Record: 0-1 And here’s the other half of the controversial prediction. On one hand, I nailed the Rams/Lions game.

If Alex Smith improbably becomes a true franchise quarterback...

Titus Young is a player who many have said has breakout potential this season, but that will all depend on his attitude.

Detroit head coach Jim Schwartz benched Young at the end of the first...
