As much as the Rams want to see Bryce Perkins play well in the preseason, the better he performs, the tougher it’ll be to cut him – and likely lose him to a team on the waiver wire.
He got off to a great start this preseason against the Chargers on Saturday night when he broke off one of the best 9-yard runs you’ll see by a quarterback. It came on third down, and two defenders had a clean shot on Perkins in the backfield.
He spun off both defenders, then scrambled to his right and stiff-armed a Charger to the turf, picking up the necessary yardage to move the chains.
Gotta be quicker than that to catch @TDN_Perk ! 🏃💨

It doesn’t get much better than that for a third-string quarterback. He’s a highly athletic player with a live arm, too.
