Rams report, 12/28: SEA CB Sherman not suspended

* Looks like my hopes for Sam Bradford play-faking rookie CBs and Steven Jackson facing less than 8 in the box all day Sunday have been dashed a little bit. Even though the hearing was here in St. Louis, Seahawks CB Richard Sherman has won his appeal and his suspension has been lifted. (ONCE AGAIN home field officiating only applies when the Rams are the road team.) Sherman's also likely to be extra-motivated Sunday because he was snubbed for the Pro Bowl. You always hate to go against a guy with that chip on his shoulder late in the season. No telling from here if the Hawks will have Marcus Trufant; he was inactive Sunday night but wasn't listed on yesterday's injury report.

* On the good side, the Rams appear to have NO ONE on the injury list. Craig Dahl, Cortland Finnegan, Steven Jackson, James Laurinaitis, Austin Pettis and Scott Wells were all full participants in Thursday's practice. Pettis had an injured shoulder yesterday but didn't have to miss any time.

* Transactions: the Rams' practice squad is fully manned again after the re-addition of DT Mason Brodine.

* And from the idiotic rumors department, the always-responsible folks at NFL.com are hyping Steven Jackson retirement talk and are all but positive he won't be back with the Rams because they have Daryl Richardson and Isaiah Pead. Who ran for nine yards combined Sunday. I'd tell the writer of this article to jump in the lake were I not afraid he'd take that idea seriously, too.
