Injuries have plagued the Rams in the last month or so, with a number of key players either missing time or battling through pain. This week is no exception after Aaron Donald, Cooper Kupp and David Edwards got hurt in the team’s wild-card win over the Seahawks.

Kupp and Edwards are both out for this game as they’ve been made inactive.

Kupp is dealing with bursitis in his knee, which popped up in the final plays of last week’s win. It’s a painful injury and after seeing him limp to the team plane Friday, it was easy to see he’s not healthy enough.

Edwards injured his ankle last week, as well, and was listed as questionable to play against the Packers. Evans filled in for him at left guard and played well in the win over Seattle. He’ll step in as the starter again today.

The Rams’ other inactives are John Wolford, Terrell Lewis, Brian Allen, Trishton Jackson and Bryce Perkins. That means Blake Bortles will back up Jared Goff as the only other active quarterback.

Fortunately, Donald and Goff are healthy enough to play today, as is Andrew Whitworth. All three players were on the injury report during the week but they’re playing, as expected.
