On Friday, the Los Angeles Rams dropped a tongue‑in‑cheek draft preview titled “Thursday,” riffing on the 1995 comedy *Friday*. The short film stars the sons of Ice Cube and Chris Tucker—O'Shea Jackson Jr. and Destin Tucker—recreating classic scenes while peppering the script with Rams players. The move signals the franchise’s playful approach to the 2026 draft rollout.

Behind the humor, the film nods to the original soundtrack, using Ice Cube’s theme and recreating the infamous “What chain?” scene. Actor Terry Crews, a 1991 Rams draftee, appears as a Deebo parody, pulling a Rams ring from Tucker’s pocket before quipping, “What ring?” The cameo bridges old‑school Rams lore with modern draft hype.

Other cameos flesh out the satire. West Coast rapper YG dons a velvet robe as Stanley, while guard Kevin Dotson plays “Big K‑Dot,” echoing Big Worm. Line‑ups include linebackers Jared Verse and Byron Young, each riding a beach cruiser beside the film’s protagonists. The montage ends with the original poster line: “A lot can go down between Thursday and Saturday.”

While the short film serves as a marketing gimmick, it also underscores the Rams’ intent to build buzz around their upcoming draft class. By blending nostalgia with current talent, the franchise keeps fans engaged as it navigates free‑agency chatter and potential trades. The clip confirms the Rams are ready to draft with confidence and flair.
