Rams’ Alaric Jackson Hit with 2-Game Suspension for Policy Violation

Rams' T Alaric Jackson suspended two games for violating the NFL's Personal Conduct Policy.

Brace yourselves, Rams fans! A key player is set to miss the opening bell of the regular season.

The Missing Anchor: Alaric Jackson’s Suspension

The NFL has dropped a bombshell, announcing that left tackle Alaric Jackson will sit out the first two games due to a suspension under the Personal Conduct Policy. While the exact nature of Jackson’s violation is still shrouded in mystery, what’s crystal clear is the impact this will have on the Rams’ game plan.

Past Performances and Future Challenges

Last season, Jackson was a rock for the Rams, starting in 15 games. Over his initial two seasons, he’s seen action in 12 matchups. Now, the Rams will need to turn to their backup, Joe Noteboom, who has a respectable 31 starts under his belt.

Here’s a quick rundown:

  • Alaric Jackson: 15 starts last season.
  • Joe Noteboom: 31 career starts – hardly a newbie in crunch situations!

But life’s not a bed of roses, compadres. The Rams’ starting lineup has already been plagued with injuries. Left guard Jonah Jackson and right tackle Rob Havenstein have also had their share of scrapes and bruises this summer. It seems like the gridiron gods are testing the Rams’ mettle right out of the gate.

Tough Road Ahead

What’s more, the Rams will kick off the season with tough away games against the Detroit Lions and Arizona Cardinals. These teams are no walk in the park, and not having Jackson on the line adds more pressure on the Rams’ offensive squad. You can almost hear the defensive linemen licking their chops, ready to pounce.

Ankle Woes Adding Salt to the Wound

If the suspension wasn’t enough, Jackson has also been grappling with a pesky ankle injury this summer, putting a big neon sign over the Rams’ offensive line that says, “Handle with care.” It’s been a rough preseason, but hey, what doesn’t kill you makes you stronger, right? At least, that’s what they say when they’re sitting on a comfortable couch, not facing a battle-hardened defensive line.

The Rams will need to dig deep, rally together, and adapt quickly. The absence of key players might just set the stage for some unexpected heroes to emerge. Strap in, folks, it’s going to be a wild ride!
