Michael Brockers mistook Steven Jackson for a defensive end

Michael Brockers shared a memory from his early days with the St. Louis Rams, recalling how he initially mistook Steven Jackson for a defensive end due to his size. During an interview with Jim Rome, Brockers recounted the first meeting with Jackson, saying he did not recognize him and assumed he was a lineman. Jackson, at 6-foot-2 and 240 pounds, was known for his imposing presence and physical running style. Over his nine-year career with the Rams, he recorded eight seasons with over 1,000 rushing yards. Brockers remains a significant figure in the franchise's history, contributing to its transition during Sean McVay's tenure.
