With several players listed on the final injury report, the Los Angeles Rams could be facing a tough task when they head to Detroit. While it’s true that they’re all carrying a designation of ‘questionable’, there’s one key player who is a cause for concern.

Jordan Fuller’s status is a headache for the Rams

According to the team’s final injury report, the Los Angeles Rams have listed six players as ‘questionable’ for Sunday’s Wild Card Round game against the Detroit Lions, including Jordan Fuller and Tyler Higbee. On Friday, head coach Sean McVay told the media that Fuller missed his third consecutive day of practice as he continues to recover from an ankle injury suffered in Week 18. Though McVay stated that Fuller is making good progress, he also made it clear that the tight end will be a game-time decision.

Higbee - as mentioned before - and Kevin Dotson were also listed as questionable, but McVay expects them to be able to play. Both players have been nursing shoulder injuries, however, Higbee was actually forced to leave the field before the end of their last game, a contest with the 49ers. For his part, Higbee caught 47 passes for 495 yards and two touchdowns across 15 regular season games. In his last game against the Giants, the 31-year-old registered six catches for 62 yards. Regarding the other players on the list, you can see the full injury report below:
