2 Rams Kams shine and other hidden crowd-pleasers from joint practice

Kamren Kinchens is having a spectacular training camp

I love the Rams addition of rookie defensive back Kamren Kinchens for a host of reasons. But what I love most about him is the dash of spice that he adds to this secondary. He is the equivalent to a tablespoon of chile powder to a batch of chile served up piping hot on a cold day.

He sends a warm feeling throughout the fanbase about this Rams secondary.

Kinchens may be new to the NFL, but he is a tried and true cutpurse, a savante of skullduggery, the tyrant of takeaways. And while the 5-foot-11 207-pound rookie defensive back out of the University of Miami has been slowly acclimating to life in the NFL. And it seems that he has finally turned the corner as apprentice to fully signed off operator in the Rams secondary.

Kamren Kinchens closed out training camp by picking off a pass in each of the final two training camp practice sessions. While that is certainly encouraging, he added a spectacular pass break up on a deep sideline pass from Chargers quarterback Easton Stick. While starting QB Justin Herbert recovers from a foot injury, the Bolt's offense is in the hands of Stick. Stick, in turn, was denied a deep strike by the Rams surging rookie safety.

The secondary has plenty of talented options for the safety position. There is veteran John Johnson III, newly signed safety free agent Kamren Curl, Rush Yeast, and of course the steller-playing DB Quentin Lake, who has been taking on a kaleidoscope of secondary roles so far. But rookie Kamren Kinchens is getting good quickly, and he has been one of the names that we continue to read good things about on a daily basis. The joint practice session with the Chargers is just one more positively trending data point.

But what of the other Kamren in this Rams secondary?
