Stetson Bennett didn't play in the Rams' season finale, but Xavier Smith and Zach Evans made an impact in the team's preseason finale against the Texans.
Here are seven takeaways from the Rams’ 17-15 preseason loss to the Houston Texans on Saturday at NRG Stadium. Coach Sean McVay did not take any chances. With veteran Jimmy Garoppolo suspended by the NFL for the first two games, Bennett was in line to back up Matthew Stafford in the Sept. 8 opener at Detroit. But after the first two preseason games, McVay had not committed to that scenario, saying Bennett was still being evaluated.
AJ Arcuri started at left tackle, Conor McDermott at right tackle. Speights, an undrafted free agent linebacker from Louisiana State, did not play against the Texans. Snead said during the broadcast that Speights was not only slated to make the 53-man roster, but the game-day roster as well. “What he’s done…from start to finish the last two games — as of now he’s on the 48,” Snead said.
