The Rams will be somewhat shorthanded again at wide receiver this week. Ben Skowronek popped up on the injury report Friday with a back injury, causing the team to list him as questionable.
On Saturday, the Rams updated his status and ruled him out, leaving them without their fourth receiver. To help take his place, the Rams promoted Landen Akers from the practice squad.
So at wideout, they’ll have Cooper Kupp, Van Jefferson, Odell Beckham Jr., J.J. Koski and Akers. As a result, expect to see much more of Beckham than we saw against the 49ers in Week 10.
Against the 49ers, Skowronek played 42 snaps and caught one pass for 8 yards.
WR Ben Skowronek’s game status has been updated to OUT.
