Jalen Ramsey Absent From Friday's Practice
Los Angeles Rams defensive back Jalen Ramsey (shoulder) didn't practice Friday. He is dealing with a shoulder injury and was designated as questionable on Friday's injury report.

Taylor Rapp Has A Chance To Play In Super Bowl

Van Jefferson Takes Friday Off

Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee (knee) missed practice for the third straight day this week on Friday. If the Rams were playing this Sunday, Higbee would be listed as doubtful.

Cam Akers Misses Another Practice Friday
Los Angeles Rams running back Cam Akers (shoulder) wasn't seen at the portion of practice open to the media on Friday.

Tyler Higbee Held Out Of Thursday's Practice
Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee (knee) was held out of Thursday's practice. He suffered a sprained MCL during the NFC Championship game and hasn't practiced since then.

Cam Akers Sidelined During Thursday's Practice
Los Angeles Rams running back Cam Akers (shoulder) has missed each of the last two practices. He injured his shoulder during the first half of the NFC Championship game.

Van Jefferson Limited During Thursday's Practice

Los Angeles Rams running back Cam Akers (shoulder) is questionable to return to Sunday's NFC Championship game against San Francisco.

Tyler Higbee Questionable To Return For NFC Championship
Los Angeles Rams tight end Tyler Higbee is questionable to return to Sunday's NFC Championship game against the 49ers.
