For now, anyway, Richie Incognito moved from right guard to center. He has played both spots for the Rams.

“Let’s be honest, he’s played his best football for us at center,” Linehan reminded reporters. “He’s played guard before and he’s played well at that position. That will be interesting, to see how the next week goes.”

Incognito was OK with the pre-camp shift. “I think it’s great,” he said. “I was feeling comfortable at right guard. The way things shook out, they wanted to get little competition for me and Romberg at center. It’s great. It good for both of us. It makes us both better players.

“It will be better for the team, better for the offensive line,” he said.

Yeah, but can he still play a physical game at center?

“Most definitely,” Incognito said. “You can play as physical as you want at any position. You can play physical at receiver.”

Now THAT is why we love the guy, even with the excessive personal fouls. This team needs more intensity, not less.

-- That said, Brett Romberg will head into training camp atop the depth chart at center. He, too, is having a strong offseason.

“The battle will ensue at center,” Linehan said. “And Romberg is playing very well. This is not a reflection on him. We’re just trying to find our best five.”
