Sam Bradford Injury: Rams QB Still Day-To-Day

by Ryan Van Bibber on Dec 26, 2011 1:15 PM CST in 2011 NFL regular season

Head coach Steve Spagnuolo of the St. Louis Rams told the press that Sam Bradford is still day-to-day.

St. Louis Rams head coach Steve Spagnuolo spoke briefly on the status of his starting quarterback Sam Bradford at a press conference on Monday afternoon. Bradford has now missed his last two games, a total of five for the season. He appears to be no closer to playing in the Rams' season finale next week than he was this week against Pittsburgh.

Spagnuolo said that Bradford is still considered day-to-day, along with A.J. Feeley, who was the backup until he broke his hand. In order to play in Week 17, Bradford would most likely have to practice this week ahead of the game. Whether or not he can do that remains to be seen, but it looks more and more like Bradford will end his season on the inactive list.

Why the Rams don't just shut him and Feeley down and give the roster spot to a younger player for a taste of life in the NFL, is unknown.

Cornerback Justin King is out for the year, erasing every last corner who started the season on the Rams depth chart. He will have shoulder surgery.

CB Josh Gordy and Chris Long are suffered no setbacks following the game. Rams fans are waiting to see if Long's name is on the Pro Bowl roster when it's announced on Tuesday.

If he feels better let Bradford play

I say why not, he wants to play, but should only be allowed to play if he can put his full weight on his ankle if not sit him.

King is out for the season?

Came a few weeks to late but I’ll take it.

By few weeks...

Did you mean since the first pass play of the Baltimore game? I figure the yardage and TDs he gave Torrey Smith that day probably earned Torrey at least a half million dollars on his next contract.

You’d think he would send Justin a fruit basket or something.
