Why the Rams may need to keep Bryce Perkins on the 53-man roster this year

Bryce Perkins was in the same recruiting class as Sam Darnold, Lamar Jackson, and Kyler Murray, but to the L.A. Rams he is no veteran. He’s the third option behind Matthew Stafford and John Wolford, but given the attrition rate in the NFL and the complexity of Sean McVay’s offense, he is a lot closer to being a necessity for the Rams than we’ve usually come to expect from a QB3.

Most fans thought by 2022, we were well past any team’s having a need to use a third roster spot on a quarterback. McVay might have to do it with Perkins again and in fact he could be as close to a lock as any QB3 in the league.
