I was hoping we could re-sign Renardo Foster but I guess we'll see what Levoir can do.

The concussion suffered by right offensive tackle Jason Smith left the St. Louis Rams with only six healthy offensive linemen on their roster. So the team on Wednesday added offensive lineman Mark LeVoir, who was released by Baltimore last week.
To make room for LeVoir on the active roster, the Rams released rookie linebacker Jabara Williams. A seventh-round pick out of Stephen F. Austin, Williams played special teams the past two weeks after being on the inactive list for the Rams' first four contests. Williams' departure means the Rams don't have a 2011 draft pick left on their active roster taken lower than fourth-rounder Greg Salas.
LeVoir, 6-7, 310, had played in three games this season with one start for the Raven. He entered the league in 2006 out of Notre Dame as an undrafted free agent with Chicago. He was with the Rams for half of the '07 season, but did not appear in any games.
Over his NFL career, LeVoir has appeared in 35 games with three starts, seeing most of his game action in three seasons with New England (2008-10). He started two games at right tackle for the Patriots in '08.
Maybe we need to look at his numbers during those two starts in '08 to get a better idea of how good he is.
Rotational RT I'm guessing?...
Man I hope Jabara Williams get signed back to the practice squad.
RT Jason Smith and DT Darell Scott both sent home for Rams; both have concussions. Further testing shows Smith also has a bruised neck.
