Rams Injury Report: Al Harris, Michael Hoomanawanui Torn ACLs; Rodger Saffold Feeling Better

by Ryan Van Bibber on Nov 14, 2011 2:37 PM CST in 2011 NFL regular season

St. Louis Rams Head Coach Steve Spagnuolo confirmed the worst news about the injuries to cornerback Al Harris and tight end Michael Hoomanawanui. Both players tore an ACL in yesterday's win over the Cleveland Browns. They are done for the season. Spagnuolo revealed that information and more in his Monday press conference.

It wasn't all bad news on the injury front today. Left tackle Rodger Saffold is symptom free this morning after suffering a head injury in yesterday's game. It was feared that he may have suffered a concussion. The same goes for CB Justin King, who suffered a head injury on the final defensive play of the game. Safety Darian Stewart is feeling better today after leaving the game with a neck injury. The coach hoped Saffold and King would be back to practice on Wednesday.

Stewart and Lance Kendricks are expected to be back on the practice field in a limited roles on Wednesday. Kendricks is getting back to health from a foot injury. Danario Alexander is still dealing with his hamstring injury, and will be limited in practice.

Spags was also hopeful that linebackers Brian Kehl and Josh Hull will be back to work on Wednesday. Jerious Norwood could return as well.

Jason Smith is still having concussion symptoms, and will most certainly miss his fourth straight game.

Winning and losing ugly.

The story of the RAMS. Yes let’s celebrate win number two, it was retribution for the loss last week. The RAMS live and die by the Field goal which means they won’t be a 500 team this year again. There offense once again STUNK! Bradford look like he was lost out there, his passes looked like unguided missles, going everywhere but where they were aimed. S-JAX had a good game again, his stats up there with Faulk and Dickerson is impressive but he can’t carry the RAMS like other backs, he needs a accurate passing attack to augment him. Bradford reminds me of Jim Everett, he has been knocked silly for 2 straight years, he needs to learn how to scramble otherwise he will be another statistic of a Q.B. who has been ASS-KICKED right out the NFL.
