Merry Christmas to those who celebrate! If you don’t celebrate Christmas that is alright, we still want you to have a great day and or holiday! Did you get what you wanted for Christmas? Was what you wanted a new Special Team Coordinator for the rest of the season? Wish granted, as it’s well known by now that the Los Angeles Rams moved on from Chase Blackburn.
Will this fix their special teams’ issues? We will have to find out.
I want to thank all our commenters, readers and everyone! Thanks for checking out Turf Show Times and enjoy the holiday!
Sean McVay explains decision to fire Chase Blackburn with 2 weeks left (ramswire)
“McVay had never fired a coordinator in-season before but it’s clear his frustrations had boiled over with the Rams’ struggling special teams group. Thursday was just the final straw.
During his press conference on Monday, McVay explained the decision to move on from Blackburn with two weeks left in the regular season, citing the confidence he has in the Rams – a suggestion that the special teams unit was holding them back.“
Rams Rumors on Davante Adams’ Injury, Timeline to Return amid NFL Super Bowl 2026 Push (bleacherreport)
“Coach Sean McVay already declared Adams doubtful for Monday night vs. [the Atlanta Falcons], and a team source told me that it wouldn’t be a surprise to see Adams miss Week 18 vs. [the Arizona Cardinals], another game the Rams can win without their star receiver,” Fowler explained. “The goal is to ensure Adams is 100 percent for the first week of the playoffs. Technically, he’s week-to-week with an injury that hampered him weeks before he aggravated it vs. Detroit on Dec. 14.”
Rams designate CB Roger McCreary to return from IR (ramswire)
“It was announced that McCreary returned to practice, so he’s working his way back from a hip injury that has caused him to miss the last four games.
McCreary injured his hip on his first defensive snap as a member of the Rams in Week 12 against the Buccaneers, exiting on the opening drive. Sean McVay said afterwards that McCreary probably could’ve gone back in the game but the Rams played it safe and held him out.“
