    Rams DB Aqib Talib emerges as an unlikely leader
    NEW ORLEANS — Aqib Talib never desired a leadership role, but from the moment he arrived at the Rams’ facility, it stuck to him, the way he has attached himself to receivers for the past decade.
    Gone, it seems, are the days when Talib’s reputation seemed to have some toxicity. He once accidentally shot himself in the leg. He’s been arrested twice, once fought a teammate and, during one stretch of his career, Talib’s name often popped up on NFL discipline lists.

    Former Servite standout quarterback Turk Schonert, who went on to play at Stanford and in the NFL and become a longtime professional coach, died Thursday, the Cincinnati Bengals announced.
