The first Rams practice under Jim Haslett began at 10:30 a.m. Tuesday, and it soon was evident that at least one thing had changed: Marc Bulger was back with the first team at quarterback.

“Marc will be the starting quarterback for the rest of the year, unless something happens,” Haslett said.

The defensive line looked much like it did Sunday, with Clifton Ryan at nose tackle, Adam Carriker at the other tackle, Chris Long at right end, and Leonard Little and Victor Adeyanju sharing time at left end. The linebackers were Pisa Tinoisamoa, Chris Draft and Quinton Culberson (Will Witherspoon was out with an injury). The secondary was unchanged, with Jason Craft in for Tye Hill.

It was interesting that the No. 1 offense went against the No. 1 defense for much of the workout. Normally, the top units don’t go head-to-head. The team was in shoulder pads and shorts.

All for now . . . more this afternoon.
