RamsJared Verse Vows No Trash Talk for Trent Williams Ahead of 49ers Visit

Verse says respect for the veteran left tackle is why he will 'let a sleeping giant sleep'.

Overview

  • The 3-1 Rams host the 3-1 49ers on Thursday night with Verse set to face 11-time Pro Bowler Trent Williams.
  • Verse called Williams "one of the best linemen ever" and a first-ballot Hall of Famer in remarks to reporters.
  • Los Angeles enters with 14 sacks and a top-10 ranking against the run and pass, with San Francisco quarterback Mac Jones praising the unit as the league’s best.
  • Verse has two sacks, six quarterback hits and 17 tackles through four games, including a standout inside rush against the Colts that coach Sean McVay lauded.
  • Williams remains highly decorated yet has shown some age and early-season wear after an opener injury, and Verse acknowledged he struggled in their meeting last season.
