Rams work out Wes Welker, Hakeem Nicks, Vincent Brown

[Denver Native (Carol)]

The Rams are considering a veteran wide receiver to bolster their anemic passing game.

Toward that end, they’re working out veteran receivers Wes Welker, Hakeem Nicks and Vincent Brown today, Adam Caplan of ESPN reports.

Welker said last week that he still should be playing. Once among the NFL’s best receivers, Welker has been out of the league all year amid concerns around the league that he has nothing left and may even be putting himself at risk if he plays again.

I have to say I did not expect him to get another contract. I really do hope he can avoid another concussion. I wouldn't take the risk if I were him, but I realize how hard it is to convince a pro athlete to quit his dream.

If the Rams have a shred of common sense, they're making him sign a waver stating that they're not responsible for any long term effects he might experience as a result of any & all head injuries that he might suffer. If I'm the Rams, I'm going to realize that some lawyer will challenge it in order to hold the us responsible anyways. Therefore, there's no way I even invite him to try out, let alone actually sign him.

I'm guessing that's standard language in all contracts.
