Austin, Quinn, Ogletree & Fisher At Rams LA Meeting (Videos)
Friday, many members of the Los Angeles Rams organization, including front office staff, coaches and players, officially convened in the Los Angeles area for the first time since the team was granted permission to depart St. Louis in January. The meeting, which was held at the Manhattan Beach Marriott, was designed to provide updated information regarding the logistics of team’s move, notably where the club will hold offseason workouts, training camp and in-season practice. The session also further familiarized the team with the layout of the new Inglewood stadium, scheduled to open in 2019.
