Sam Bradford Likely To Miss Rams Season Finale

NFL

St. Louis Rams starting quarterback Sam Bradford is not likely to play in the club’s season finale this weekend against the San Francisco 49ers, according to the Associated Press.

Bradford, last year’s No. 1 overall pick, did not practice Wednesday as he is still battling a left ankle sprain that has left him out of the lineup for five games.

“It’s still not where I think our training staff would like it to be,” Bradford told the AP. “This week was really the first time we had really done much and to be honest it didn’t feel great in the little that we did do.”

Bradford was named the NFL Offensive Rookie of the Year last season after throwing for 3,512 yards and 18 touchdowns in 16 games. This season, however, Bradford has thrown for just 2,164 yards and six touchdowns in 10 games for the Rams.
