Rams tight end Lance Kendricks, who started the preseason on the PUP list as he recovered from offseason knee surgery, is close to full participation in practice and sounds confident he will be ready for the season opener (Sept. 8) against the Cardinals. "I feel really good out there," Kendricks said after Monday’s practice, per the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. "Just trying to knock the rust off and trying to get back to playing shape." Kendricks said he won't play in Thursday's preseason finale against the Ravens, but expects to be a "go" for the season opener. "Definitely," Kendricks said. "We’ve got two weeks here (before Arizona), plenty of time to get acclimated to football and the other guys on the field." Source: CBS Sports
