    Rams OT Alaric Jackson will not face criminal charges after being arrested in June on suspicion of domestic violence.

    Prosecutors told The Athletic that Jackson will not be facing criminal charges as a result of a domestic violence arrest in June. The 28-year-old was arrested on a felony domestic battery charge after police responded to a call to his home. However, charges are not being filed against him. Jackson has started 45 regular-season games for the Rams over the last three seasons and was also facing legal issues after he was sued in November 2025 by “a woman who accused him of recording sexual acts with her without her consent.” This case is headed for pre-filing diversion, which may constitute a violation of the league’s Personal Conduct Policy and still lead to a suspension, pending league review.

    Rams OT Alaric Jackson was arrested Monday on a felony domestic violence charge.
    The charge against Jackson, 27, who has been with the Rams since entering the NFL in 2021, was for “a person who willfully inflicts corporal injury,” according to the LAPD. Jackson, who has played in 45 regular season games for the Rams over the past three seasons, has a history of off-the-field issues, including a 2024 suspension for violating the NFL’s personal conduct policy. Jackson last November was sued “by a woman who alleged he recorded her without her consent during sex, repeatedly refused to delete the video and taunted her with it,” according to ESPN. Jackson is one of several Rams players facing legal issues this offseason.

    Rams HC Sean McVay said Alaric Jackson returned to practice on Monday.
    Jackson was diagnosed with blood clots in June, but has been trending toward being ready for Week 1. The fact that he was able to suit up for a Monday practice suggests he’s still trending in the right direction, and the team said the plan will be to start him in Week 1 against the Texans if all goes well this week. Jackson earned a PFF pass blocking grade of 79.5 last season, allowing just three sacks and 22 pressures on 502 dropbacks. If he is unable to start, D.J. Humphries looks like the most likely candidate to step up in Jackson’s absence.

    Rams HC Sean McVay said OT Alaric Jackson will progress to team drills next week.
    Jackson has been a massive question mark for the Rams this offseason after developing blood clots in June but avoided the PUP and NFI lists last month. The most recent update indicates he could be ready for the start of the regular season, which would be a significant boost to the protection of reeling veteran quarterback Matthew Stafford. Stafford has been dealing with back issues all offseason with the team recently stating the intent is to “keep him upright” in Week 1 against the Texans. Jackson could go a long way in accomplishing that goal. It’ll still be a “wait and see” approach with Jackson but he currently appears to be trending in the right direction.

    Matthew Stafford
    LA Quarterback #9
    The Athletic’s Jourdan Rodrigue reports that the Rams “aren’t worried” about Matthew Stafford’s (back) status for the coming season.
    Due to Stafford’s lengthy injury history, the Rams had already “planned to put Stafford on a modified workout plan in training camp before the back issue popped up.” On the plus side, it sounds as if the Rams were prepared to occasionally run the offense sans Stafford in training camp. Stafford is also reportedly on schedule, following a plan that had been previously agreed upon by the Rams, Stafford and spine specialist Dr. Robert Watkins. Rodrigue does, however, note that the Rams’ starting left tackle Alaric Jackson (blood clots) and right guard Kevin Dotson (chest contusion) remain sidelined. Both Jackson’s and Dotson’s statuses are worth following. If Stafford’s Saturday workout goes well, he should resume practicing on Monday next week. Stay tuned.

    Alaric Jackson
    LA Tackle #77
    Rams coach Sean McVay said the team would not place Alaric Jackson (blood clots) on the PUP or NFI lists.
    “For now, Jackson will do individual drills with the athletic training staff and participate in jog-throughs, but not the physical OL activities,” per Rams.com’s Stu Jackson. While it’s a good sign that they haven’t placed him on either of the lists, it sure sounds like Jackson’s status is unknown going forward at this point. Until we get a report that he’s on the practice field going full-bore, he probably should not be counted on to start this year.

    Alaric Jackson
    LA Tackle #77
    NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reports Rams OT Alaric Jackson is dealing with blood clots, putting his 2025 season in question.
    Rapoport notes that “the belief is (Jackson) will play in 2025,” but this is clearly something that will sideline him for some time. This news adds further context to the team’s decision to sign D.J. Humphries to a one-year deal earlier in the week, as he’ll presumably serve as Jackson’s replacement in the weeks/months ahead. Jackson also dealt with blood clots in 2022 and was placed on season-ending injured reserve as a result. Jackson signed a three-year, $57 million contract extension this offseason after turning in a strong 2024 season. We’ll likely know more about his injury before training camp, but an extended absence does not appear out of the question at this time.

    LA Tackle #77
    Rams signed LT Alaric Jackson to a three-year, $57 million contract extension.
    ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reported a deal was in the works less than an hour ago and now the ink is dry. Jackson was set to be a free agent in a few weeks, but the Rams weren’t going to let a young left tackle hit the open market. Per FOX NFL’s Jordan Schultz, the extension includes $35 million guaranteed. Jackson took over as LA’s starting left tackle two years ago and took another step forward last year, cracking Pro Football Focus’s top 20 graded tackles. He is now under contract through 2027.

    LA Tackle #77
    ESPN’s Jeremy Fowler reports the Rams are “getting close on a long-term extension” for LT Alaric Jackson.
    Jackson entered the league as a UDFA for the Rams four years ago. He took over the starting left tackle job two years ago and was tendered as a restricted free agent last offseason. Jackson earned a top-20 grade at his position from Pro Football Focus in 2024 and has gotten better in every year of his career. As expected, the Rams don’t have any intentions of letting him see the open market. Expect a deal to be announced sooner rather than later.

    Rams LT Alaric Jackson (chest) did not practice on Wednesday.
    Jackson evidently picked up a chest injury of unknown severity last week. Given the stakes, he will likely play through the pain but his Thursday and Friday practice participation are critical. Rams starting nose tackle Bobby Brown III (shoulder) was also sidelined on Wednesday.

    Rams LT Alaric Jackson (foot) is active for Week 13 against the Saints.
    Jackson did not practice all week but will play against the Saints. Rams declared QB Stetson Bennett, RB Cody Schrader, OLB Brennan Jackson, OL Dylan McMahon, and OL Warren McClendon Jr. inactive for Week 13 against the Saints. The Rams are getting healthier on the offensive line and have more healthy scratches than injury issues this week.

    The South Florida Sun Sentinel’s David Furones believes Jalen Tolbert “appeared to be” one of Malik Willis’ top targets in OTAs and minicamp.

    Furones also lists Greg Dulcich as a player that was a primary receiver for Willis, but we’ve done plenty of offseason hype on Dulcich. Tolbert appears to be a potential “someone has to catch a ball here” deep league pick, as he’s well off the fantasy radar at this point. He’s not off the board among the top-100 wideouts in ADP. The ceiling is likely low, but if he can emerge as the top option amongst Miami’s wideouts, Tolbert could be a viable WR3/WR4 at points this year.

    Texans T Braden Smith (neck) underwent neck surgery earlier this offseason and is “tracking towards a full recovery for training camp.”

    Smith, who received a two-year, $25 million contract from the Texans this offseason, was limited during the spring as he dealt with the aftermath of the surgery. It’s not exactly a promising sign for his availability that NBC’s Aaron Wilson went with the term “tracking towards” here. Trent Brown figures to see some time with the ones early in training camp.

    Titans.com’s Jim Wyatt believes Tyjae Spears “has a chance to have a bigger role as a runner.”

    This is something of an annual drum beat from Titans camp. Spears suffered an ankle injury early last season that limited his reps. We’re sure if he can stay healthy, his overall share of the backfield snaps and touches will increase. But it’s hard to understand how he’d suddenly become the lead back in Tennessee without an injury to Tony Pollard.

    ESPN’s Rich Cimini reports Geno Smith’s assault allegations case has been declared “inactive” by police.

    No charges are being brought and future action is contingent on new information or evidence being brought forward, per a police spokesman. Police were reportedly unable to determine the primary aggressor in the physical altercation. Smith’s home camera did not show any physical altercation occur between Smith and a woman. While it’s possible that there is more evidence to be seen, it seems safe to proceed as if there’s no reason to believe Smith will be held liable for whatever occurred here.
