3 reasons fans should be excited about Rams meeting with Blake Bortles
By Dan Parzych
Here are three reasons Los Angeles Rams should be excited about Monday’s visiting for Blake Bortles.
For the most part, the Los Angeles Rams have been pretty quiet in free agency, as the team continues to evaluate all possibilities to put them in the best position to make sure they have what it takes to make a run at the Super Bowl during the 2019 season.
Losing to the New England Patriots the way they did back in February was beyond embarrassing for the NFC champions, but the good news for the Rams is talent wise, all signs point to this team being a top contender in the conference once again for a second year in a row.
Before jumping that far ahead of course, Los Angeles wants to make sure they use the current free agency period to make sure this happen by attempting to fill each of their needs, one of which happens to be the backup quarterback position.
No, there are no concerns surrounding Jared Goff at the moment, but the former No. 1 pick needs someone reliable behind him since Sean Mannion could end up on a new team since the quarterback happens to be a free agent himself.
That’s where Blake Bortles comes into play, as it looks like the former first-round pick will be visiting the Rams on Monday to see if the two sides turned out to be a good fit for one another.
Based off his history alone, most Rams fans will immediately hate this move since the argument can be made there are plenty of better options than Bortles. But believe it or not, Bortles could actually be a good fit, and here are three reasons why fans should feel good over Monday’s meeting taking place.
