Thursday’s Game to be Televised Locally, News and Notes
Posted by on October 3, 2012 – 12:33 AM- The Rams just wrapped up their Tuesday practice, starting and ending a little later to help get some more rest on a short week and to acclimate to playing an evening game.
- First things first, the Rams have met the requirements of a sell out to have the game televised locally in the St. Louis area. It will appear on NFL Network Thursday night at 7:20 CST from the Edward Jones Dome.
- The Rams will go through a bit of combination of practices tomorrow with a walk through and a Friday practice rolled into one. After that, they will go to the local hotel they stay in the night before games and go through meetings tomorrow night and Thursday afternoon.
- RB Steven Jackson got some light work in Tuesday’s practice and seems to be on pace to play again this week.
- Ditto for T Wayne Hunter, who has been battling knee and ankle issues.
- It seems the only player who won’t go this week in addition to T Rodger Saffold (knee) is DE Eugene Sims. He suffered a mild concussion against Seattle and did not practice again Tuesday. On a short week, it’s logical to assume he won’t be available.
- With so much pain and soreness and a quick turnaround, the Rams had a team yoga session on Monday.
- Of note for Arizona, DT Darnell Dockett continues to be limited by a hamstring injury in practice. He did not play last week against Miami.
- That’ll do it for today. Be sure to check out the notebook story on the homepage (the corners are featured) for more information from today’s work.
- Thanks for reading.
