His work in his first four games? He currently has seven total tackles, three sacks and two passes defended through four games. ... along with the always present intimidation factor that comes with being a future Hall of Famer.

The Rams wanted to keep him ... and right about now, Tomlin and his 1-3 rebuilding Steelers - who figure to give rookie QB Kenny Pickett his first NFL start (kickoff for that home contest at Highmark Stadium is scheduled to be at 1 p.m. ET.  - probably wish Von had stayed in L.A. ...

Or on whichever planet he is from.
