Andrew Whitworth was the left tackle for the Los Angeles Rams for five seasons, but somehow it felt like more.
Whitworth joined the Rams in 2017, when they were coming off a 4-12 season, playing in the aging Los Angeles Coliseum and quarterbacked by Jared Goff. By time he retired earlier this month, the Rams were Super Bowl champions, playing in the most modern of NFL stadiums at SoFi Stadium and quarterbacked by Matthew Stafford.
It's going to take the Rams a little while to get used to a world without him.
