The Los Angeles Rams are potentially getting another boost to their defense on Sunday, as the team designated rookie linebacker Ernest Jones for return on Thursday. The third round defensive player out of South Carolina made his debut on special teams in Week 1, then on defense in Week 2, and made his first start in Week 8 against the Houston Texans; Jones had nine tackles, two QB hits, a tackle for a loss, and an interception that day.
Now that guy could be back on Sunday against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers, as the Rams look to upset the defending champions and advance to the NFC Championship game.
