Former Oklahoma offensive lineman Bobby Evans had himself a day on Sunday for the Rams, and earned himself the honor of breaking out the team.
ALL THE FEELS.

Evans was a three-year starter at Oklahoma, and was a vital part of a unit that won the 2018 Joe Moore award, the award for the best offensive line in the country.
Los Angeles drafted Evans in the third round of the last draft, 97th overall.
In his first ever start at right tackle, due to starter Rob Havenstein suffering a knee injury, Evans had the tall task of fending off NFL star Khalil Mack.

Evans did a phenomenal job, not allowing Mack to get to the quarterback. Along with his pass blocking, running back Todd Gurley ran for 97 yards and a touchdown behind the line in the 17-7 win over the Bears.
There is currently no timetable for Havenstein’s return from a knee injury, so for now the job looks to be Evans to lose.
