The Los Angeles Rams concluded their preseason schedule with a [score of today’s game] over the Houston Texans at NRG Stadium.

After the game, Rams head coach Sean McVay addressed several topics with reporters, including Alaric Jackson’s two-game suspension for violating the league’s personal conduct policy.

No other details on the suspension were given but the NFL’s personal conduct policy applies to a player’s public image and personal life, and prohibits conduct that could endanger players, damage the league’s reputation, or bring discredit to the sport.

McVay didn’t reveal any more details on the suspension but said they would welcome Jackson back in Week 3, via Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic:

Sean McVay was asked by @AndrewSiciliano about the Jackson suspension on coaches' cam on ABC7 broadcast. Appreciate the ask by Siciliano – not much more info on the matter provided by McVay, who says team will welcome Jackson back after his two-game suspension is served.

The Rams re-signed Jackson to a one-year restricted tender worth $4.89 million during the offseason and he is projected to be the team’s starting left tackle when he returns.

With the suspension, Jackson will miss the Rams’ first two games of the season against the Detroit Lions and Arizona Cardinals on the road. He is slated to return in Week 3 for the team’s home opener against the San Francisco 49ers.

In Jackson’s absence, the Rams will likely turn to Joe Noteboom at left tackle in Weeks 1 and 2. He has filled in at a variety of positions since being drafted by the team in 2018 and at one point was viewed as the heir apparent to Andrew Whitworth.

While it’s unfortunate that Jackson will be temporarily unavailable, the Rams should be able to withstand the void for the first two games on their schedule.

Jackson has been sidelined for most of training camp with an ankle injury and it is possible that he would have missed some time regardless of his two-game suspension.
