Rams report, 11/3

Injuries
Limited practice participants: Danario Alexander, Mark Clayton, Brady Poppinga, Tony Wragge.

Full practice participants: Jerious Norwood, Justin King.

King says he's 100 percent sure he's playing this week. Really? Because I'd keep starting Josh Gordy if it were my choice. Almost any other Rams DB of the last 5 years would have kept his back to the play and let Devery Henderson catch that ball late in the first half Sunday. Gordy GOT HIS HEAD TURNED and picked it off. The Rams should keep their best playmakers on the field.

Out: Jason Smith and Darell Dorell Scott with concussions. Both are still experiencing post-concussion symptoms so they're not even to where they would be tested to be cleared for action.

Sam Bradford was on the practice field with the rest of the team Wednesday, but only walked through some plays. He is making progress with the ankle injury and is now wearing a small brace. Seems pretty doubtful he'll be ready for Arizona, though.

Big Dead report
Kevin Kolb and Beanie Wells both sat out Wednesday's practice.

Transactions
all ex-Rams related:

Jonathan Wade signed by Miami.
Fendi Onobun, Derek Schouman and Travon Bellamy all tried out with Washington.
Jonathan Nelson tried out with New Orleans.
David Nixon tried out with Houston.

Miscellaneous
Robert Quinn's blocked punt against the Saints was enough to get him named NFC Special Teams Player of the Week. Steven Jackson and Chris Long were runners-up for offensive and defensive player of the week honors.
