The Rams waived cornerback Troy Hill on Tuesday, three days after Hill was arrested for suspicion of DUI.

The Rams made Hill inactive for last Sunday’s game vs. the Dolphins. Hill had previously appeared in all nine regular-season games, starting four.

Undrafted in 2015, Hill spent time with the Bengals and Patriots before landing with the Rams. He played in three games for the Bengals last year.

The Rams also waived cornerback Dwayne Gratz and placed linebacker Josh Forrest on their injured-reserve list. Gratz had played in three games for the Rams after being cut by the Jaguars.

Cornerback Mike Jordan and linebacker Nic Grigsby were promoted to the active roster from the practice squad. Both are rookies.
 
If I'm not mistaken, that means we have an open spot on the team? Subtract Forrest, Hill and Gratz. Add Jordan and Grisby.

I has a feeling this was coming when Fisher commented, during his post-game press conference, this issue would be addressed on Monday. Just the terseness in his voice gave me the impression Hill was going to get released. Hope the kid realizes what he's done and will learn from it. He could be a decent roll player for someone down the road.

I'm a little suprised. Hill brought some great tackling ability to cover for his smaller size, and inabity to win battles for the ball.

It tells me the nature of the infraction really showed exceedingly poor judment and character.

Business is business. We move on.

Yeah, why cut him to begin with. Seems like Jeff's anger caused him to overreact. Maybe coach is a bit tense due to the realization that he might be losing the best gig he has ever had.
 
This season is so depressing, it has driven the Rams players to drink....

Since this happened at 8am on Saturday... Wouldn't that mean he was on his way to practice/work?

I'm sure the Rams have some kind of team activity on the morning before games. I can't imagine that they just have the day off on the day before a game.

Nothing says commitment like showing up to work fucked up as Chinese money. But hey,,, maybe they didn't have to show up for work until around lunch time... at that point he'd just be fucked up and hung over. :palm:
