Training camp is officially open for the Los Angeles Rams after a week of COVID-19 testing and collecting equipment for the upcoming month or so of practices. While the team hasn’t gone through a regular practice yet, players were on the field for a walk-thru on Monday.
The Rams also held meetings, including a full team meeting in the new (and massive) tent outside the facility where players typically park. It’s unclear exactly what the Rams worked on during the first official day of camp, but players seemed thrilled to be back on the field.
Check out some photos from the first walk-thru of the year, featuring shots of Jared Goff, Darrell Henderson, Tyler Higbee and others.

Over the weekend, Sean McVay laid out the tentative schedule for training camp leading into the season. They’ll work from Aug. 3-7, then have another three days from Aug. 9-11. The 13th will begin the “ramp-up” portion of camp, as McVay put it, before real practices with pads begin on Aug. 17.
With no preseason, the Rams plan to scrimmage a couple times at SoFi Stadium, though that will mostly be for the guys fighting for roster spots instead of the top starters.
