The Los Angeles Rams hit the field for their first practice of the week on Wednesday and unlike the Buffalo Bills, who only held a walkthrough, the Rams were a full-go. They listed seven players on the injury report but only three of them were either non-participants or limited, and one of those was Cooper Kupp, who was simply resting.
The Bills’ list of injuries is much longer but everyone was at least a limited participant, so they appear to be in decent shape heading into Sunday’s game against the Rams.
The good news for Los Angeles is that Matthew Stafford and Tyler Higbee were both full participants, and Alaric Jackson’s absence was merely a precaution with the team keeping his workload lighter after he popped up with a foot injury last week.

Alaric Jackson injury update
Sean McVay said Jackson took part in the walkthrough on Wednesday but the Rams held him out of practice “just to be smart with his foot.” It sounds like he’s on track to play again on Sunday.
Tyler Higbee injury update
McVay initially said earlier this week that it’s not likely Higbee will play against the Bills, but he didn’t rule it out on Wednesday.
“It’s possible,” he said of Higbee playing. “He’s doing good. We’ll see today how another full day of practice goes for him. He did an amazing job being out there for us last week. He brought an energy. Guys love him. He’s truly a glue guy for us. We’ll take it a day at a time and see what that looks like.”
Matthew Stafford injury update
Stafford came away with a sprained ankle in Week 13 but McVay said it’s nothing that will affect his availability throughout the week. Stafford was a full participant on Wednesday and should be fine for this weekend.
