The Los Angeles Rams have an all-AFC West preseason schedule and right now it looks like the team will face off in joint practices against two of them. Oddly, so far the L.A. Chargers have not been named as one of those teams despite the head coach being Sean McVay’s former defensive coordinator Brandon Staley.
It was announced last week that the Rams will conduct joint practices against Josh McDaniels’ Las Vegas Raiders.
FYI: The @Raiders and @RamsNFL will conduct joint practices in SoCal ahead of their preseason game this summer.

The Rams pulled a shocking upset win over the Raiders on Thursday Night Football last season, with Baker Mayfield playing virtually the entire game despite only arriving with the team a few days earlier.

The Rams held joint practices against the Bengals in 2020. And Aaron Donald was involved in a fight.
The Rams held joint practices against the Raiders in 2021. And they were stopped early because of fighting.
The Rams held joint practices against the Bengals in 2022. And literally the exact same headlines popped up about “Aaron Donald swings helmet at Bengals players” and practice was ended early because of a fight.
What are we expecting to be different in 2023? We know that teams have an ability to schedule joint practices. Do they have the ability to finish them?
