Rams notes, 10/5
The Rams came out of Sunday's history-making 20-3 smackdown of Seattle little the worse for wear. Injuries during the game:
- Besides having a 13-stitch divot taken out of his head while foiling a fake FG, Kevin Dockery re-aggravated his hamstring and will be out up to two weeks.
- Gary Gibson injured a shoulder and may have to get it MRI'ed.
- Steven Jackson and Oshiomogho Atogwe, however, did not worsen the respective groin and thigh injuries they played with. I assume they'll be no worse than probable for Detroit.
* Old injuries:
- Darian Stewart was inactive against Seattle due to a hamstring injury but could return to practice this week. His status was originally described as day-to-day.
- Laurent Robinson was inactive for the second straight week due to a foot injury; I've seen no estimated duration for that. Have to call him out indefinitely.
- Cliff Ryan's migraine problems also continue. He was inactive against Seattle and I'd also consider him out indefinitely. If Gary Gibson can't go, the Rams are going to have to come up with another defensive tackle. So, Ernest Reid, did you keep in shape after training camp? OMG, D-Lew's available, isn't he? Don't even think about it, Billy Devaney.
- Billy Bajema (sprained MCL) could return to practice this week. That would be on the quick side for his recovery time.
- In even bigger surprises, Chris Chamberlain (toe) and Michael Hoomanawanui (ankle) are also considered possible for return to practice this week. I had them as out another 3-5 weeks.
- Darell Scott (ankle) should be out another 4-6 weeks, unless he's also a fast healer and comes back next week. Or, more than likely, these were all 4-6 week injuries instead of 6-8.
* Off the injured list: Mike Karney, Keith Toston, and Craig Dahl all played Sunday, as of course did Jackson and Atogwe.
* Old news:
- Santana Moss was fined $5,000 for the crackback block he threw on Atogwe last week.
- Keith Null spent four days on the Jagwires practice squad, becoming deletable when they picked up Trent Edwards.
- More memories of training camps past:
Brooks Foster was added to the Dolphins practice squad.
Cord Parks was dropped from the Seahawks practice squad.
Lance Ball was added to the Broncos practice squad.
The Saints cut K.C. Asiodu.
- And yes, Danny Gorrer is still holding down a job in the NFL. Ravens PS.
- Per NFL.com, Marquis Johnson returned to the Rams practice squad September 30th. The Rams online roster is not up-to-date; it has Johnson on the active roster and just seven men on the PS.
* Betting lion: Rams opened as 3-point underdogs to the Lions, over/under 42.5. I'll take the Rams and the points, please.
