ST. LOUIS (AP) Sam Bradford threw touchdown passes on his first two drives, and the St. Louis Rams made improvements on the other side of the ball in a 31-17 preseason victory over the Kansas City Chiefs in the annual Governor’s Cup game on Saturday night.
Lance Kendricks and Danny Amendola scored on catches of 23 and 8 yards, and Steven Jackson ran for 49 yards on seven carries in a 151-yard first quarter that handed the backups a two-touchdown cushion. The Rams (1-1) totaled 215 yards in a 38-3 loss last week at Indianapolis.
Bradford was 6 for 9 for 102 yards for St. Louis. Matt Cassel played the first half for Kansas City (1-1) and was 13 for 18 for 142 yards.
Former K-State Wildcat Tysyn Hartman had three tackles for the Chiefs.
