In Week 13, the Los Angeles Rams are on the road to Phoenix to play the Arizona Cardinals.
Today, we got a ton of info from HC Sean McVay and DC Wade Phillips in their media remarks to accompany the intermediate injury report:

| Robert Woods | WR | Shoulder | DNP | DNP | DNP | Out |
Let’s start with the good.
RB Lance Dunbar, CB Nickell Robey-Coleman and WR Josh Reynolds are all good today which means they’re all but certain to be fine for Sunday.
RB Malcolm Brown remained a limited participant as he continues to mend his sprained MCL; with Dunbar back in the fold, the need for Brown to return isn’t as severe this week as it was last week with Dunbar inactive and rookie UDFA RB Justin Davis pressed into service. Both C John Sullivan and CB Kayvon Webster were upgraded to limited participation. We’ll see how they go tomorrow.
As for the five who didn’t participate, the major news was that rookie OLB Samson Ebukam will start in place of OLB Connor Barwin on Sunday. We also got news that WR Robert Woods isn’t far off:
Sean McVay said he hopes WR Robert Woods (shoulder) will be able to return next week vs. Philadelphia but "a more realistic target" would be 12/17 at Seattle.

McVay did say that ILB Mark Barron will be “good to go for the game,” so no worries there as of tonight.
We’ll see what’s up with TE Tyler Higbee and LT Andrew Whitworth tomorrow.
Here’s Arizona’s side:
