Rams make final cuts to roster

ST. LOUIS -- The St. Louis Rams kept undrafted rookie Austin Davis as the backup quarterback behind Sam Bradford, and veteran Kellen Clemens was among the cuts to get to a 53-man roster.

The Rams also released former first-round draft pick Vernon Gholston and veteran fullback Ovie Mughelli, sticking with incumbent Britt Miller. NFL teams had until 8 p.m. Friday to make moves.

Linebacker Aaron Brown, a seventh-round pick, was the team's lone draft selection to be cut.

Davis was impressive throughout the preseason after going undrafted out of Southern Mississippi. Davis and Clemens both struggled in the preseason finale, a 31-17 victory over the Ravens on Thursday night. Clemens went 2 for 8 for 10 yards with an interception and Davis was 1 for 4 for 13 yards.

"I think we're in a good spot right now," St. Louis coach Jeff Fisher said. "We're young, we still have a lot of work to do."
