Some of you may remember a few months ago when we discussed the Rams signing Canadian Football League offensive lineman Jovan Olafioye. Olafioye was a guy who plenty of NFL teams liked, and it looked like a pretty good move for a team in need of depth on the line. Then, Olafioye failed his physical and was released by the Rams, and that was the last we heard of him. That it until Tuesday, when Howard Balzer wrote on his website that Olafioye reportedly failed his physical due to “Hypertension/high blood pressure.”

“I stopped taking my medication,” Olafioye recently told the Vancouver Sun. “Me, just being young, thinking about the workouts, I thought I would be all right if I just ate right. I thought, ‘I should be good.’ Was I trying to do the right thing, and it turned out not to be the right thing? Exactly. I’m taking my meds now and staying away from things like red meat. I’m eating lots of salads.”
