The St Louis Rams lost Marc Bulger to a broken pinkie finger on his passing hand before the last game and couldn’t afford another quarterback setback.

Drew Bennett will try out along with D.J. Hackett(notes) and two other receivers who have yet to be named, though Bennett and Hackett are expected to be the most recognizable of the four.

Bennett was set to be the Rams’ No. 2 receiver last season before breaking his foot in the opener after only one reception....
