    In Week 1 of the preseason, Rams rookie Omar Speights performed exceptionally well. The former LSU star stood out by recording four tackles and one tackle for a loss. He graded out as the second-highest-rated Rams defender. According to Pro Football Focus, he was the seventh-highest-graded linebacker in Week 1 of the preseason.

    D’Marco Farr, a former Rams star and radio network personality, has been impressed by Omar's performance in training camp. According to Farr, Omar knows the defense well and just needs an opportunity. He is trusted by the team.

    “Watching him play, he has a motor, and I like that he can make plays. Now, he's behind Ernest Jones and Jake Hummel, but there is an opportunity for Speights to make this football team.”

    Our next look at the former Tiger will be tomorrow night when the Los Angeles Rams take on the Los Angeles Chargers at SoFi Stadium.
