The Rams held a light non-padded session on Monday afternoon at Cal Lutheran. After taking on the 49ers in Santa Clara on Thursday night, the team will be on the road once again this weekend travelling to Dallas to face the Cowboys.

INJURY REPORT

Thursday night’s 41-39 victory over the Niners was not without its share of injuries. On Friday night, head coach Sean McVay announced that wide receivers Tavon Austinand Sammy Watkins had been placed in the concussion protocol.

“We’ll continue to monitor them,” he said, “and hopefully we’ll get some good news on them in the upcoming days.”

Per the NFL’s concussion rules, an unaffiliated neurologist will need to clear both players before they can participate fully in practice or suit up for Sunday’s game.

Safety Lamarcus Joyner exited Thursday’s game with a hamstring injury in the second quarter, while center John Sullivan suffered a groin injury early in the third quarter. Both did not return to game action and were characterized as “day-to-day” by McVay.

An official injury report will be issued on Wednesday when the Rams officially begin their practice week for the Cowboys.
