Darious Williams continues unlikely breakout career
Robert Hanashiro-USA TODAY Sports The former undrafted free agent out of a college that didn’t have football five years ago looks like a star In 2015, Jalen Ramsey was focused on finishing a career at Florida State that was destined to last no longer than three years after the Seminoles had landed the prized five-star high school football and track recruit. Ramsey only finished with three interceptions over 41 career games but he was a consensus All-American that year, along with the likes of Deshaun Watson, Derrick Henry, Christian McCaffrey and Joey Bosa.

Rams-Giants recap: Darious Williams, defense secure win for L.A.
Photo by Harry How/ It wasn’t pretty, but the Rams improved to 3-1 to start the season.

Then on a single play we were reminded that the Rams have players and coaches to worry about too.

The Giants had two more opportunities to score and go for a tying two-point conversion,...

While Darious Williams shines, QBs are 12-of-12 throwing at Troy Hill
Photo by Kyle Ross/Icon Sportswire via The Rams could have a breakout star at cornerback, which only makes Hill’s role that much more important On the defense’s final play of last week’s win against the Eagles, Troy Hill made an impressive diving interception on an overthrow by Carson Wentz. The ball was not thrown “at” Hill, but because it was too high for the intended receiver to catch it, the important object was acquired by a surprise recipient. Two games into the season, Troy Hill has an interception. He may also have already allowed nearly half as many completions as he...
