- Sean McVay reveals Rams' plan at LT with Alaric Jackson suspended 2 games
The Los Angeles Rams have a plan in place at left tackle with Alaric Jackson's out. The NFL suspended Jackson two games for punching Buffalo Bills edge rusher Bradley Chubb after Monday night's game , leaving the Rams without a critical starter for the next two weeks.
Sean McVay told reporters Tuesday that the Rams will start veteran David Quessenberry at left tackle while Jackson serves his suspension. McVay did say that his understanding is Jackson will appeal the suspension, but assuming he misses time, Quessenberry will be the starting left tackle.

The Rams re-signed Quessenberry this offseason, committing to him as their swing tackle. Depth at that spot is thin, but McVay also announced Keagen Trost will return to practice this week and could be activated off injured reserve.
Quessenberry hasn't started a game since the 2023 season when he was with the Vikings. He's only played 18 total offensive snaps since the start of last season and hasn't been a full-time starter since 2021 as a member of the Titans.
If Trost is activated, he will be a valuable backup at both tackle spots. Trost has been on injured reserve since the start of the season after getting hurt in the first quarter of the preseason opener in August.
