The Los Angeles Rams waived cornerback Troy Hill as part of a series of roster moves Tuesday, three days after Hill was arrested on suspicion of DUI.Rams coach Jeff Fisher said hes not going to rule out a second opportunity.I think people deserve second chances in life, Fisher told reporters after Tuesdays practice. I think he learned from it, but I was just disappointed in his choices.The Rams also waived fellow cornerback Dwayne Gratz and put rookie linebacker Josh Forrest on injured reserve, promoting cornerback Michael Jordan and linebacker Nic Grigsby from the practice squad to the active roster.Forrest suffered a knee injury?Sunday that was expected to keep him out four to six weeks.Hill was arrested on Saturday morning, after his Mercedes swerved over multiple lanes on an L.A. freeway and crashed into the back of a semi-truck around 8 a.m. PT, according to multiple reports. The 25-year-old was then given a field sobriety test and was handcuffed on the spot, booked in Van Nuys, California, and de-activated by the Rams for Sundays game against the Miami Dolphins.Hill -- the Rams fourth cornerback on the depth chart, after Trumaine Johnson, E.J. Gaines and slot corner Lamarcus Joyner -- was released from custody later in the afternoon on $15,000 bail and has a preliminary court date for Dec. 14.I was disappointed in his choices, as they relate to Friday night and Saturday morning, Fisher said. I dont think he put the team first. I got information, and we made the decision. Because Troy was truthful with me in our conversations the last couple of days, I also said that Im not going to rule out a second opportunity.The Rams also signed linebacker Randell Johnson to their practice squad.Hill, undrafted out of Oregon, spent last season with the Cincinnati Bengals and had started four games for the Rams in 2016, emerging as a key fill-in with improved play. In a 9-6 win over the New York Jets in Week 11, Hill came off the bench to play in 52 percent of the defensive snaps and was the Rams highest-graded player by Pro Football Focus.Gratz, a third-round pick out of Connecticut in 2013, was claimed off waivers from the Jacksonville Jaguars on Oct. 11 to combat the release of Coty Sensabaugh and subsequent ankle injury suffered by Johnson.Fisher called parting with Gratz a tough decision and hinted at other moves in the secondary.Jordan -- not to be confused with the greatest basketball player of all time --- went undrafted out of Missouri Western State earlier this year and was among the Rams final cuts during training camp.Hes so excited, Fisher said. It was really fun to talk to him today. He understands our system. Hes played really hard in practice; he was productive in the preseason games. He understands that theres maybe a 50-50 chance of him being active this week, just because of numbers and things, but hes really excited.Jordan 1 Cheap Real . The winner Saturday will remain in the elite 10-team field next year. "We talked about wanting to be disciplined and stick with our game plan and good things will come," Draisaitl said, who had two goals for the victors.

Numbers Game examines the deal that sees Michael Del Zotto and Kevin Klein switch places. The Predators Get: D Michael Del Zotto. Jordan Retro 1 Canada . -- Adam Snyder returned to the San Francisco 49ers this season because the offensive lineman thought it was his best opportunity to win a championship. Air Jordan 1 Sale Canada .Y. -- Marcell Dareus and the Buffalo Bills defence made life miserable for Super Bowl MVP Joe Flacco.BOSTON -- One night after nearly tying the major league record for consecutive at-bats with a hit, Dustin Pedroia will miss the Boston Red Soxs series finale against the Kansas City Royals on ESPN Sunday Night Baseball.Pedroia took leave of the team Sunday morning to attend funeral services for a family member. Hes expected to rejoin the Red Sox midway through Monday nights game against the Tampa Bay Rays at Fenway Park.Based on his text, hes envisioning a walk-off hit in the ninth, Red Sox manager John Farrell said. Much like Pedey fashion, that was his departing text this morning.A player must miss a minimum of three games to be placed on the bereavement list, so Farrell said the Red Sox will simply play one man short Sunday night and for the first few innings Monday night.Save perhaps for New York Yankees rookie phenom Gary Sanchez, there isnt a hotter hitter in baseball than Pedroia, wwho had his streak of 11 consecutive at-bats with a hit snapped in the eighth inning of Saturday nights 8-3 victory over the Royals (the major league record is 12).dddddddddddd Pedroia also had reached base safely in 12 straight plate appearances and raised his batting average to .320, second in the American League behind Houstons Jose Altuve entering play Sunday.Pedroias surge coincides with his move into the leadoff spot. Hes 33-for-72 (.458) with four walks and a .481 on-base percentage since the shift from his usual No. 2 spot to the top of the order, a move designed to get Mookie Betts into a run-producing, middle-of-the-order position behind fellow MVP candidate David Ortiz.In Pedroias absence, utility man Brock Holt will start at second base Sunday night.
