Rams' New Right Tackle Test | California News

The Rams are betting big on Warren McClendon to fill the void left by Rob Havenstein’s retirement after 11 seasons — a role that demands stability and resilience. While Havenstein’s durability was legendary, injuries finally caught up, leaving McClendon, who started 13 games last year including playoffs, as the man to carry the load. The team didn’t bring in competition this offseason, signaling confidence — but also caution: this is McClendon’s prove-it season. Unlike Andrew Whitworth’s brief stint with Joe Noteboom, McClendon has more experience and a bigger sample size. If he delivers, he could be the long-term answer; if not, the Rams have time to adjust. With nearly their entire starting lineup returning, McClendon’s performance could be the key to whether they can reclaim their Super Bowl momentum.
