Back at practice Wednesday Long (groin) was listed as a limited participant on the Rams' injury report Wednesday, Gilbert Manzano of The Orange County Register reports.

Impact Long logged his first limited practice since being ruled out with a groin injury in Week 3, which kept him sidelined during Monday's loss to the 49ers as well. With the 24-year-old sidelined, reserve cornerback Grant Haley and rookie Derion Kendrick have taken on more prominent roles in the Rams' secondary. Long recorded seven tackles over the first two weeks of the season, and he should step back into a starting role opposite Jalen Ramsey when healthy.

Out for MNF Long (groin) will be sidelined for Monday's game against the 49ers, Gary Klein of the Los Angeles Times reports.

Impact Long was absent at practice during the week, so this decision is not surprising. The absence will mark his second straight while he continues to nurse a groin injury. As a result, some combination of Grant Haley and Robert Rochell figure to fill in for him at cornerback.

Still nursing injury Long (groin) did not practice Thursday, Gilbert Manzano of The Orange County Register reports.

Impact Long was unable to practice to finish out last week, then was ruled out Friday for Week 3. He'll likely need to practice before the week is over to suit up Monday against the 49ers. If he's unable to play, Grant Haley may be inline to see extra opportunity.

Ruled out for Week 3 Long (groin) was ruled out for Sunday's Week 3 matchup with the Cardinals, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official Twitter reports.

Impact Long will miss Sunday's contest after he showed up on the injury report Wednesday with a groin issue. With both Troy Hill (groin) and Cobie Durant (hamstring) unavailable for the game as well, the Rams will be thin in their secondary as they take on Kyler Murray and the Cardinals. Shaun Jolly was signed on Thursday and will likely step into a significant role in Week 3.

Unable to practice Thursday Long (groin) was unable to practice for the Rams on Thursday, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

Impact Long landed on the Rams' injury report for the first time this season Wednesday with an unspecified groin injury. With both Troy Hill (groin) and rookie Cobie Durant (hamstring) having suffered injuries in Week 2, Long's availability will be crucial for the Rams' secondary in Week 3. The Rams signed defensive back Shaun Jolly on Thursday, who could see a workload if Long is unable to suit up Sunday.

Lands on injury report Long (groin) was listed as a limited participant on the Rams' injury report Wednesday, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Long recorded four tackles while playing 41 defensive snaps during Sunday's 31-27 win against the Falcons, but he is now dealing with an unspecified groin injury after appearing on the Rams' injury report for the first time this season. The starting cornerback's availability will prove very important for Los Angeles after Troy Hill (groin) and rookie Cobie Durant (hamstring) both suffered injuries in Week 2.

Rams' road to Super Bowl repeat starts with forgetting last season

Clear of injury report Long (knee) isn't listed on Wednesday's injury report, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

Impact Long had a pick-six during Monday's win over the Cardinals before leaving with the knee injury, but coach Sean McVay said the cornerback is "doing good," per Brady Henderson of ESPN. Barring a setback, it appears the 23-year-old will be able to play in Sunday's playoff matchup with the Buccaneers.

Injury appears minor Long (knee) appears to have suffered a minor injury Monday night, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

Impact The cornerback left Monday's wild-card win over the Cardinals early with a knee injury, but the initial feedback on the issue is positive according to head coach Sean McVay. Long's status at practice this week will be worth monitoring ahead of the team's divisional-round game against the Buccaneers on Sunday.

Super Wild Card Weekend Top Plays: Rams cruise past Cardinals

Suffers knee injury Long is questionable to return to Monday's wild-card matchup against Arizona after suffering a knee injury.

Impact Long suffered the injury just before halftime and walked slowly off the field prior to having his left knee examined on the training table, per Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic. He made his mark on the game earlier in the first half when he picked off an ill-advised Kyler Murray pass and returned it for a score. If Long is unable to return, the Rams' secondary will be very short-handed with Taylor Rapp (concussion) and Jordan Fuller (ankle) also sidelined.

Healthy going into Week 14 Long (illness) did not appear on the injury report Thursday, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.

Impact The cornerback was inactive for the team's Week 13 win over the Jaguars while dealing with the illness. Long has made 26 tackles, deflected three passes and intercepted a pass in 11 games this season.

DECEMBER 9, 2021 • ROTOWIRE

Inactive Sunday Long (illness) is inactive for Sunday's contest against the Jaguars, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

Impact Long didn't practice at all this week, so his status comes as no surprise. The cornerback didn't play any defensive snaps during the Rams' Week 12 loss to the Packers, so his absence likely won't impact Los Angeles' defensive rotations.

Battling cramps Long (cramping) is probable to return to Sunday's game against the Bears.

Impact Long went to the locker room in the third quarter, but he's likely to return before long based on this update. Rookie Robert Rochell slid into Long's spot and should remain there until Long -- who picked off Andy Dalton in the end zone earlier -- returns.
