Rams QB Matt Stafford (concussion) is listed as questionable for this weekend’s game vs. the Cardinals. He returned to a limited practice on Friday, and HC Sean McVay said Stafford is making “good progress.” He still has multiple stages of the concussion protocol to clear, though, so consider Stafford 50/50 to play on Sunday. QB John Wolford will get the start if Stafford is out.

Rams RB Kyren Williams (ankle) will be activated from IR and play vs. the Cardinals this weekend, HC Sean McVay said. The rookie has been out since going down in the opener. There were reports that he was slated to play a significant role before that ankle injury. We'll see how much action he gets against Arizona on Sunday. We'd try to avoid this backfield in Week 10 fantasy lineups, but Williams is worth stashing in leagues of 12+ teams.

Rams QB Matt Stafford (concussion) will be limited in Friday's practice, HC Sean McVay said. So Stafford has made some progress through the protocol, giving him a chance to be cleared in time for Sunday's game vs. the Cardinals. He figures to be listed as questionable on the final injury report later today.

Rams QB Matt Stafford (concussion) remained sidelined for Thursday's practice. He has a long way to go to get cleared in time for Sunday's game vs. the Cardinals. At this point, it's looking more likely than not that it's John Wolford under center for Los Angeles in that one. We'll update Stafford's status again on Friday afternoon.

Rams RB Malcolm Brown (hamstring) did not practice on Wednesday. Brown played 28% of Los Angeles' offensive snaps last week, finishing with 2 carries and 1 target. His absence vs. the Cardinals this weekend would be a very slight boost for RBs Darrell Henderson and Cam Akers.

Rams HC Sean McVay announced Wednesday that QB Matt Stafford is in the concussion protocol. The team reportedly discovered symptoms earlier this week, and Stafford was placed in the protocol on Tuesday. The timing here challenges Stafford's availability for this weekend's game vs. the Cardinals. If he's not cleared by Sunday, QB John Wolford will get the start. He went 22-of-38 (58%) for 231 yards (6.1 YPA), 0 TDs and 1 INT in a win over the Cardinals back in 2020, adding 56 yards on 6 carries.

Ravens WR Demarcus Robinson (groin) is active for tonight's game vs. the Saints. WR DeSean Jackson is also active, joining Robinson, Devin Duvernay and James Proche in the WR corps.

Rams WR Cooper Kupp enjoyed a huge game in Sunday's loss to the Buccaneers, despite coming off an ankle sprain late in their Week 8 loss. Kupp racked up 8-127-1 receiving on 9 targets in a game that saw the Rams throw for only 165 yards in all. WRs Allen Robinson and Van Jefferson tied for 2nd with 5 targets apiece. Robinson caught 3 for 24 yards. Jefferson went without a catch. TE Tyler Higbee went catchless on 1 target.

Rams WR Van Jefferson (knee) is active for today’s game vs. the Bucs. He was limited in practice all week, so it’s safe to assume that Jefferson still isn’t at 100% after that early-August knee surgery. He shouldn’t be in season-long fantasy lineups.

Ravens WR Demarcus Robinson (groin) is listed as questionable for Monday night's game vs. the Saints. He was added to the injury report on Friday and did not practice on Saturday, so he seems truly iffy for this one. Robinson tallied season highs with 8 targets, 6 catches and 64 yards last week but wasn't a bankable Week 9 fantasy play even before this injury. His absence would leave the Ravens with WRs Devin Duvernay, James Proche, Tylan Wallace and DeSean Jackson, who's expected to make his debut in this one.

Rams WR Van Jefferson (knee) was limited in practice all week and is listed as questionable for Sunday’s game vs. the Bucs. HC Sean McVay said Friday that Jefferson will play, but it sure looks like he’s not at 100% yet.

Rams WR Cooper Kupp (ankle) is not listed on the final Week 9 injury report. He went from no practice on Wednesday to a limited workout on Thursday to full participation on Friday. Kupp still carries a bit more risk than usual, but he remains a must-start in season-long lineups vs. the Bucs on Sunday.

Rams WR Cooper Kupp (ankle) returned to a limited practice on Thursday. He's seemingly on track to play vs. the Bucs this weekend, but we'll get another update on his status tomorrow.

Rams WR Cooper Kupp (ankle) did not practice on Wednesday. HC Sean McVay said earlier this week that he expects Kupp to play vs. the Bucs this weekend, but we'll continue to keep a close eye on his status over the next few days.

Rams HC Sean McVay said Monday that he expects WR Cooper Kupp (ankle) to play vs. the Bucs this weekend. Kupp has some "tissue swelling" but no structural damage to that ankle, per McVay. We'll keep a close eye on Kupp's status throughout the week, but fantasy owners can tentatively expect to have him in Week 9 lineups.

Rams WR Cooper Kupp is considered "day to day" with a "regular, low-ankle sprain" suffered late in the Week 8 loss to San Francisco, according to NFL Network's Ian Rapoport. "He's got a chance to play [vs. the Bucs this weekend,] but you need to see how it responds, how swollen it gets, how it takes to rehab," Rapoport adds. "It seems like overall, the Rams star receiver is going to be fine, but we need to see how the week goes before we determine his availability." We'll keep a close eye on Kupp's status throughout the week. His absence would obviously be a big blow to the Rams offense, while leaving behind lots of volume for Allen Robinson, Tyler Higbee, Van Jefferson and Ben Skowronek.

Darrell Henderson led Rams RBs in snaps played in Sunday's loss to the 49ers. But Ronnie Rivers paced the backfield in carries and targets. He managed just 21 yards on his 8 carries (2.6 per rush) and 15 yards on 4 catches, among 4 targets. We'd bet on rookie RB Kyren Williams getting significantly involved once he's ready. We also wouldn't be surprised to see the Rams pick up a RB ahead of Tuesday's trade deadline. Henderson rushed only 4 times for 16 yards and drew 2 targets (2 catches, 14 yards) against San Francisco. It's pretty clear that Sean McVay doesn't believe in him as a primary RB. Malcolm Brown mixed in for 5 carries (10 yards) against the 49ers.

Rams WR Cooper Kupp appeared to suffer an ankle injury late in Sunday’s loss to the 49ers. He was able to walk off the field, but there’s a chance he’ll miss time going forward. We’ll keep an eye out for an update.

Update: HC Sean McVay did not have an update after the game. Former NFL head team Dr. David Chao believes Kupp is dealing with a "mild" inversion ankle sprain, based on video of the injury, and believes he has a good chance to be ready for Week 9.

Rams TE Tyler Higbee suffered a neck injury in the 1st quarter of Sunday's game vs. the 49ers and is questionable to return. Stay tuned for an update.

Update: Higbee returned in the 2nd quarter.

Rams HC Sean McVay said Friday that WR Van Jefferson (knee) will play vs. the 49ers this weekend and have his "normal workload," per ESPN's Sarah Barshop. McVay added that Jefferson will be monitored throughout the game. A "normal workload" for Jefferson last year meant an 80% snap rate and 14.7% target share. It'd be a little surprising if Jefferson did that much in his 1st game since early-August knee surgery, but it sounds like McVay expects him to contribute. We'd try not to use Jefferson in season-long fantasy lineups this week, but he's an intriguing DFS flier.
