A COVID-19 scare on Thursday caused the Rams to take extra precautions leading up to this weekend’s game against the New York Jets, keeping five players out of the final two practices of the week.
Bobby Evans and Nick Scott were placed on the reserve/COVID-19 list Friday and have been ruled out for Sunday’s game, while Ogbonnia Okoronkwo, Justin Hollins and Brian Allen remained away from the team to close out the week.
Okoronkwo, Hollins and Allen are all listed as questionable after missing practice Friday, though Sean McVay expects them to play as long as they test negative and remain asymptomatic.
On the Jets’ side, Jamison Crowder is the only player with an injury designation. He’s questionable with a calf injury. If he’s unable to play, it’ll be a big blow to the Jets offense, given his impact at wide receiver.
Kickoff on Sunday is set for 1:05 p.m. PT at SoFi Stadium.
