Austin Reiter was a player Rams fans often mentioned in the offseason as someone who could potentially replace Austin Blythe at center. The Rams passed on him in free agency but now about nine months later, they’ve finally brought Reiter aboard.
The team announced this weekend that it signed Reiter and four other players to the practice squad, continuing to churn its roster amid these challenging times with COVID-19 running rampant in the locker room.
The other four players are DB Delrick Abrams, OT Adrian Ealy, C Drake Jackson and TE Kyle Markway.
