Make it an even ten cornerbacks to have hit the Rams' injured reserve list this season. Marquis Johnson, reported as having an abdominal injury after Sunday's game, turns out to have a lacerated spleen. It's supposed to get better with just rest, but Johnson's season is over.
Good Lord, they've had cornerbacks with blown knees, a broken neck, a broken ankle, a torn spleen, corners injured by their own teammates, corners injured in training camp, corners injured at the team scrimmage.... Forget Deadliest Catch, the most dangerous job in America is playing cornerback for the Rams.
Transactions:
Johnson's spot on the Rams roster will be taken by tackle Thomas Welch, who tried out here last week but had to be signed off of Buffalo's practice squad. The practice squad position that opened when Kevin Hughes was promoted will be filled by rookie cornerback Kendric Burney. Best of luck to him; he'll need it.
