The Los Angeles Rams' fourth-round pick announcement Saturday was, for some reason, zombie-themed.
"The Walking Dead" creator Robert Kirkman and star Michael Cudlitz helped Rams legend Vince Ferragamo announce the selection of wide receiver Josh Reynolds - and Ferragamo was even loaned the villainous Negan's infamous baseball bat, Lucille.
It's an odd decision by the NFL, as "The Walking Dead" is in direct viewing competition with Sunday Night Football.
But if any fanbase has been in a zombie-like state for the past decade, it's the Rams'.
