Rams released G/T Quinn Ojinnaka.

Ojinnaka was benched in favor of Shelley Smith at left guard in the Rams' Week 7 loss to the Packers, and they liked what they saw enough to make a permanent change. A seven-year veteran, Ojinnaka appeared in nine games for the Colts last season, making three starts. Now cut loose from two of the league's worst offensive lines in back-to-back seasons, Ojinnaka could have trouble finding work.

Rams re-signed OL Quinn Ojinnaka.

The Rams need Ojinnaka's experience and versatility after losing C Scott Wells (foot) for the season and LT Rodger Saffold (neck) indefinitely.

Journeyman Quinn Ojinnaka opened Rams camp as the first-team left guard.

Bryan Mattison took the bulk of the snaps at the position in offseason practices. The inference is that the coaching staff wasn't thrilled with his performance. Left guard is a potential trouble spot for a team that wants to run heavily in 2012.

Rams signed G/T Quinn Ojinnaka to a one-year contract.

Ojinnaka was released by the old coaching staff last summer. He was visiting Thursday night along with former Jets backup OL Rob Turner, a sign that the Rams were looking for depth up front with this signing. Ojinnaka has just 15 career starts in six NFL seasons.

G/T Quinn Ojinnaka started for RT Ryan Diem (high ankle sprain) in Sunday's Week 7 matchup with the Saints.

This isn't so much of a downgrade for the Colts' pass protection as it is for its run blocking. Curtis Painter has dealt with a patchwork line since taking over Kerry Collins, and Diem already ranks among the league's worst at right tackle. Use your Colts passing weapons as you normally would. The run game is already hands off for fantasy purposes.

Colts signed G/T Quinn Ojinnaka.

Ojinnaka has starting experience and can play both guard and tackle. He's a better pass protector than run blocker, something the Colts need after Curtis Painter's time evaporated late in Monday night's loss to the Bucs.

Rams released G/T Quinn Ojinnaka.

A favorite of GM Billy Devaney from his time in Atlanta's front office, Ojinnaka failed to impress in three weeks with the Rams.

Rams signed G/T Quinn Ojinnaka, formerly of the Patriots.

Entering his sixth year in the league, Ojinnaka made eight appearances but zero starts for the Patriots last season. A fifth-round pick of the Falcons' in 2006 when current Rams GM Billy Devaney was a member of the front office, he has a good chance of sticking in St. Louis.

The Rams will host free agent G/T Quinn Ojinnaka on Friday.

Ojinnaka, 27, made five late-season starts at right guard for Atlanta in 2009, grading out badly as a run blocker but reliably in protection, according to Pro Football Focus. Ojinnaka was the Falcons' fifth-round pick in 2006. It just so happens that Rams GM Billy Devaney was in Atlanta's front office at the time.

Patriots failed to extend a tender to potential restricted free agent OL Quinn Ojinnaka.

The fifth-year reserve played eight games last season, seeing offensive snaps in only three.
Thu, Mar 3, 2011 06:35:00 PM

Patriots re-signed OL Quinn Ojinnaka.

Ojinnaka was just released by the Patriots a week ago. He's back to supply depth with Logan Mankins still holding out.
Thu, Oct 7, 2010 10:33:00 AM

Ravens worked out free agent OL Quinn Ojinnaka and Donald Thomas on Monday.

RT Jared Gaither (back) still has no timetable for a return, so the Ravens are doing their homework on veteran free agent options. The team also worked out linemen Jake Grove, Nick Leckey, Brett Romberg, Kirk Chambers, Scott Kooistra, and Kynan Forney.

Patriots released G/T Quinn Ojinnaka.

The Patriots gave up an undisclosed future draft pick for Ojinnaka five weeks ago, but he apparently didn't live up to expectations. He fell behind practice squad OG Rich Ohrnberger on the depth chart. It's possible that the pick was conditional, so the Patriots may not end up forfeiting a a pick.
Thu, Sep 30, 2010 12:48:00 PM

Patriots acquired G/T Quinn Ojinnaka from the Falcons in exchange for an undisclosed future draft pick.

An intriguing, versatile physical specimen, Ojinnaka has experience starting at left tackle and right guard. The Pats figure to use him to compete inside with Nick Kaczur possibly out for the year and Logan Mankins' holdout potentially set to last the entire season. They won't have him until Week 2, though. Ojinnaka was suspended for Opening Day for domestic battery.
