The trade deadline is nearing, so it’s only natural that there’s speculation the Rams could deal running back Steven Jackson. Those rumors have swirled for some time.

ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported Sunday that the Rams have “fielded trade inquiries” for Jackson recently, and cited the Cardinals, Steelers, Packers and Cowboys as teams that could be looking for help at the position.

There’s a good chance Jackson will be gone after this season anyway, as both parties have agreed to let him opt out of his contract after 2012.

It’s almost inconceivable that the Rams would trade Jackson within the division, so you can pretty much cross Arizona off the list.
