Rams notes, 9/28
Winning over the Redskins Sunday didn't offer the Rams any relief on the injury front:
* Steven Jackson, of course, is the highest-profile injury, having incurred a strained groin when the Redskins tried to pull his leg off in the 2nd quarter Sunday. His status is day-to-day.
* Also at RB, Keith Toston has a sprained shoulder but is expected to be able to play Sunday.
* And Mike Karney injured a thumb and will be playing with a cast. Not one of those cool clubs, though. Too bad.
* Dominique Curry tore an ACL while covering a punt and has gone on season-ending IR.
* O.J. Atogwe missed the second half after re-aggravating what's described as a thigh injury when Santana Moss hit him with a dirty block. Steve Spagnuolo is hopeful that he'll be able to go against Seattle. Consider him day-to-day.
* Darian Stewart is day-to-day due to a hamstring injury. Ironic how the Rams have so many injuries at the position of "safety".
Injury updates:
* Craig Dahl, still out indefinitely due to concussion. He passed a test yesterday, and if he passes another with an independent doctor today, he can return to practice Thursday.
* Billy Bajema, out 1-3 weeks, sprained MCL.
* Michael Hoomanawanui, 4-6 weeks, high ankle sprain.
* Chris Chamberlain, 4-6 weeks, broken/turf toe.
All of the previous three players are said to be progressing well.
* Darell Scott, 5-7 weeks, high ankle sprain.
* Cliff Ryan was inactive Sunday and remains out indefinitely due to migraines. Ryan is hopeful again this week that he'll be cleared to play.
On the mend:
* Laurent Robinson was out Sunday due to a foot injury but is said to be making good progress. Funny how Brandon Gibson actually getting open a few times will do that to a guy.
* Daniel Fells, Justin King and Rodger Saffold all appeared to play without incident Sunday and come off the injury list, as will Kevin Dockery (below).
* Transactions: The Rams cut Kevin Dockery Saturday in order to call Jermelle Cudjo up from the practice squad. Then today, they re-signed Dockery and waived Marquis Johnson, who appears headed back to the practice squad.
The Rams filled Curry's roster spot by signing RB Chauncey Washington off the Jets practice squad.
* Viva Las Vegas: The Seahawks opened as 1.5-point favorites for Sunday's game, but the line has already moved down to 1. Over/under is 38.5. Don't ask me; I clearly have no idea. Take the Redskins all day, indeed.
* Not a sellout: 8,000 tickets remain for the game Sunday.
