Austin "very quiet" in camp

Former Rams WR Torry Holt says WR Tavon Austin has failed to stand out in training camp.  “Tavon Austin has been very quiet this camp, and I thought he was quiet the other night [in the preseason opener],” Holt said. “And for a guy who was picked 8th overall, it’s bothering me he’s been so quiet up to this point.”  Holt went on to say that he believes Austin's biggest contribution this season will come on special teams.  It's just one man's opinion but obviously not what we want to hear about a guy looking to make a 2nd-year leap.  Between Austin's disappointing rookie campaign and St. Louis' run-first offense, we're not expecting him to emerge as a weekly fantasy starter in 2014.
