THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. -- Tavon Austin, costing nearly $15 million toward this year's salary cap, has been on the field for 15 offensive snaps through the Los Angeles Rams' first two games. Eleven Rams skill-position players have seen more action, a list that includes all three tight ends, the backup running back and five other receivers.
Sean McVay said the Rams are still "feeling it out" with Austin.
"Clearly he's special with the ball in his hands and doing some of the different things you guys have seen, with the jet sweeps, playing the running-back position and being able to take some screens," McVay said of the fifth-year player.
