EARTH CITY, Mo. — The St. Louis Rams began their work week with a walkthrough Monday as they prepare for the quick turnaround for Thursday night’s game against the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.
Because the team only did a walkthrough but is required to submit an injury report, Thursday’s list is an approximation of how much or how little a player would have participated had there been a full practice.
Running back Todd Gurley, who left some fans holding their breath when he left Sunday’s game against Detroit, is apparently going to be just fine. Gurley told reporters after the game that he “banged up” his knee and though he’s listed as limited on Monday’s injury report, the reason listed is “not injury-related (rest).”
Elsewhere on the injury report, the Rams have still not placed end Robert Quinn (back) in injured reserve, so he’s listed as not participating. Offensive lineman Andrew Donnal (knee) and cornerback Eric Patterson (ankle) have the same designation.
Cornerback Janoris Jenkins, meanwhile, has passed all but the exertion test in the concussion protocol, according to coach Jeff Fisher. Jenkins missed Sunday’s game against Detroit and was limited Monday, but if he passes the exertion test will be cleared to return.
Here’s Monday’s full injury report:
Did not participate — DE Robert Quinn (back), OL Andrew Donnal (knee), CB Eric Patterson (ankle).
Limited participation — RB Todd Gurley (rest), WR Kenny Britt (shoulder), OT Rob Havenstein (calf), CB Janoris Jenkins (concussion)
