Report: Rams releasing Boston Scott, plan to keep only 3 RBs

The Los Angeles Rams have until Tuesday at 4 p.m. ET on Tuesday to trim their roster down to 53 players, but they’ll be cutting players over the course of the next three days. They already started to whittle it down on Sunday, making a decision at running back.

According to Jordan Schultz, the Rams are releasing Boston Scott. They signed Scott shortly after the draft and he got a heavy workload in the preseason, but they didn’t see enough in those three games to keep him on the roster.

Interestingly, Schultz added that the Rams are planning to go with just three running backs on their initial 53-man roster, which suggests Zach Evans will also be cut. Kyren Williams, Blake Corum and Ronnie Rivers are expected to be the three running backs they keep.
