Rams starting LT will be suspended for Week 1 matchup with the Lions

USA Today

There’s still one more preseason game to get through for the Detroit Lions, but the look ahead to Week 1 is looking a little better now. When the Lions host the Los Angeles Rams in Week 1, the Rams will be without their starting left tackle.

The NFL has suspended Rams tackle Alaric Jackson for the first two games of the season, according to ESPN’s Adam Schefter. Jackson got hit with the suspension for violating the NFL’s personal conduct policy.

Rams backup QB Jimmy Garoppolo was also suspended for the same two-game period. No immediate details on what portion of the policy they violated are available.

Jackson has been injured this summer, but he was projected to be the Rams’ Week 1 starting left tackle. Now, Los Angeles will swing to Joe Noteboom in that spot.
