Rams injury report


Three players did not participate in practice Monday due to knee injuries: William Hayes, Chris Givens and Rodger Saffold. Hayes was injured during Sunday's 31-7 loss in Dallas and was on crutches after the game, so he sounds very doubtful for Thursday night. Saffold sprained an MCL in the loss at Atlanta, and has was originally described as "week-to-week", but the Rams can't have added two offensive linemen to the roster since his injury thinking he'd be back very quickly. I'd imagine Rodger will be out another 3-4 weeks. Another guess is that Max Starks will be at right tackle Thursday night.

Limited participation for: James Laurinaitis (foot), Jake Long (foot), T.J. McDonald (knee), Mike McNeill (chest), Daryl Richardson (foot), Chris Williams (foot). Richardson was actually on the field for a couple of plays Sunday but had to leave the game after getting his already-injured foot stepped on. Long was pulled from the game late Sunday as a precautionary measure after his injury. Should be fair to expect him to play Thursday, hopefully a lot better.
