Undrafted rookie QB Thaddeus Lewis out of Duke if pushing 2nd year QB Keith Null for his roster spot as the Rams’ #3 QB.  Lewis has completed 16 of 20 passes (80%) this pre-season for 166 yards with 1 TD pass and 1 INT (97.1 QB Rating).  He has also carried the ball 1 time for 9 yards this pre-season.  Null has only completed 10 of 27 passes (37%) for 101 yards with 0 TD passes and 0 INTs (48.5 QB Rating).  He has also carried the ball 3 times for -6 yards (-2.0 ypc) so far this pre-season.  Null wasn’t too impressive as a rookie last season for the Rams so he could be out of a job if he doesn’t improve before the last cut down day as Lewis has really outplayed him so far this pre-season.

UPDATE:  (9/5/2010) – The Rams have cut Keith Null.  Null played in 4 games last season for the Rams and he completed 73 of 119 passes (61.3%) for 566 yards with 3 TD passes and 9 INTs (49.9 QB Rating).  Null also carried the ball 5 times for 6 yards (1.2 ypc) as a rookie last season.  The Rams were 0-4 in his starts.  This was a move that had to be made as undrafted rookie Thaddeus Lewis clearly outplayed Null in the pre-season.
