Players undergoing offseason surgery is nothing new, and for the Los Angeles Rams, this was the week for several starters to get things cleaned up. Andrew Whitworth had a procedure on his right leg, Eric Weddle underwent his first surgery ever, and Austin Blythe had surgery on both of his shoulders.
That news is according to Vincent Bonsignore of The Athletic, who also notes that Blythe played through a nagging ankle injury this season, which he did miss one game for.
Blythe started the season at right guard before moving to center after Brian Allen went down with an injury. He played better at center than he did at guard, so it’s yet to be determined where the Rams will play him in 2020 – if he even returns.
He’ll be a free agent in March, among other key Rams starters, so he may be in a different uniform next season.
