Rams special teams coordinator John Fassel, whose nickname is “Bones,” likes to keep his players motivated. And competitive.
“Coach ‘Bones’ likes to keep us on our toes, so he’s always coming up with ways to make things exciting,’’ safety and special teams standout Cody Davis said following a recent practice. “He likes to find ways to keep us engaged and to help create that competitive edge on the practice field and in games.’’
That would explain the championship belt hanging in Davis’ locker these days. Coming off one of his better games as a Ram, Davis currently leads the 500-point club, one of Fassel’s motivational tools.
