LOS ANGELES, Ca. On Thursday, the Los Angeles Rams held practice behind closed doors as they wind down their final preparations before taking on the Dallas Cowboys next week in both a joint practice and a preseason game at SoFi Stadium.

Here are more takeaways from Day 8 of training camp: It was a solid performance from starting quarterback J.J. McCarthy throughout a very long practice. He had several very good throws in 1-on-1 drills, continued the momentum in 7-on-7 drills, and dropped a dime to receiver Jordan Addison in 11-on-11 drills.
