ST. LOUIS (AP) - The St. Louis Rams addressed a need in the secondary, agreeing to terms on a four-year contract with free agent safety Quintin Mikell. The 30-year-old Mikell led the Philadelphia Eagles in tackles last year along with three interceptions and made the 2009 Pro Bowl. He's the likely replacement for Oshiomoghe Atogwe. Mikell was with the Eagles for eight seasons, including a time when coach Steve Spagnuolo was an assistant in Philadelphia.Copyright © 2005 The Associated Press. All ri |
