Jeff Fisher Cuts Rams WR For Bringing A Female Over For A Good Time
NFL training camps are tough. The players endure grueling workouts for hours on end to get themselves prepped for the upcoming season. It can take a toll both mentally and physically on a player. So naturally, players need an escape from reality to refresh their minds.
One Los Angeles Rams wide receiver, Deon Long, wanted to do so by bringing a female to his dorm. Jeff Fisher found out and asked him about the incident. When Long explained himself in a pretty reasonable manner (by saying that she wasn’t staying past curfew), Fisher cut him on the spot because “rules are rules.”
Fisher didn’t hold back when he told the team that Long was gone.
From ESPN:
“I’m not f—ing going 7-9 or 8-8 or 9-7 … we have too much talent here for that,” he said on “Hard Knocks.” “We had some 7-9 bulls— this morning and we can’t have that. Deon is gone. That is 7-9 bulls— and we don’t need it.”
This might be the quote of the year from Fisher. Everyone and their mother knows that Fisher and the Rams are going to be hovering around the 8-8 mark. It’s in Fisher’s blood. His career record as a head coach is just above the.500 level.
This isn’t the first NFC West coach who has cut a player for a team rule violation. Bruce Arians cut a player for parking in his parking spot. Which is crazier: Fisher or Arians?.

If he was cut for bringing a dude over this would make national headlines. MSNBC and CNN would need new pairs of pants. Fisher would be fired and the player cut would get an ESPY

10 years ago at 11:26 amHe was cut because he is fucking horrible and now the rest of the rookies will be scared shitless and follow the rules. If Gurley was banging 10 sloots on the 50 of the practice facility nothing would happen.
10 years ago at 11:46 amThe Rams will inevitably will be 8-8 at best no matter what Fisher does
10 years ago at 11:55 amI just came here to say that Stan Kroenke is a bastard
10 years ago at 12:12 pmJeff “Commander .500” Fisher is going to make sure his Rams go 7-9 or 8-8 this year like every season
10 years ago at 12:22 pmFurther proof that Fisher offenses can’t score
10 years ago at 3:31 pmThe whole system of the training camp dorms is stupid and antiquated. Either the players are professionals who are responsible for their own behavior and should go home after work every night like every other adult or they are meatheads that have to be babysat every second of the day. The NFL can’t have it both ways.
