Rams turn to Joyner for free safety role in new defense

  • Lamarcus Joyner started 27 straight games at safety for the Florida State Seminoles, before switching to cornerback in his senior season (2013) after a change in defensive coordinators.
  • Joyner has seen 80.7 percent of his snaps come in the Los Angeles defense’s nickel package, and has only played 26 snaps in the Rams’ base defense over the last two seasons.
  • In the last two seasons, Joyner has seen 14 pass attempts on go routes thrown into his coverage, and has given up one catch for a total of 20 yards.
