Rams notes: Special teams standout Reynolds welcomes competition - STLtoday.com
Since cracking the lineup, Reynolds has seen action in 31 of the team’s last 32 games and finished 2014 as the Rams’ special teams leader with 19 tackles, which ranked him in the NFL’s top five. “I enjoy being out here because I love to compete,” the 27-year-old said following a recent organized team activity (OTA) at Rams Park. “For a guy like me, a guy who’s had to fight and scratch for his spot, every season’s a challenge. In this league, the longer you play, the more you have to be willing to dig in because every year there’s a new group of guys looking to take your spot. But Reynolds, a record-breaking running back from the University of Montana, views the newest Rams more as future teammates than as competition. “I enjoy meeting the new guys and trying to help them through the process,” he said. With a new offensive coordinator (Frank Cignetti), there’s some new stuff to learn and I find that by helping the young guys, it helps me learn the new stuff that much quicker. “Not everybody wants to help out the younger guys, but that’s just the type of person I am. It’s something that helps the team overall and it makes me feel good, seeing them evolve and get better. Source: www.stltoday.com
