Bulger's day-to-day; may not play Sunday

Sep 29, 2009

Quarterback Marc Bulger has a bruised rotator cuff in his throwing shoulder, and the St. Louis Rams don't know if he will be available for their game against the San Francisco 49ers on Sunday.

"He'll be a little bit day-to-day," Rams coach Steve Spagnuolo said Monday. "We're not sure on this week. We'll see where he is at tomorrow and on Wednesday, and if he'll do anything at all. It's not torn. It's a bruised rotator cuff."

Spagnuolo said he didn't know if Bulger would be able to throw in practice on Wednesday.

"He's very sore today," Spagnuolo said. "Tomorrow when he comes in, we'll see where he is at. I know one thing about Marc Bulger, if there is a way for him to go and fight through pain, he'll do that." If Bulger can't play, Kyle Boller will start in his place.

Per Bears head coach Matt Eberflus: Ryan Bates remains in the concussion protocol. Elijah Hicks (ankle) and D'Andre Swift (groin) won't practice.

Teven Jenkins will be limited.

Related Players: Roschon Johnson, Travis Homer

Fantasy Impact:

This is definitely a situation to keep an eye on, as Johnson would have a huge workload if Swift were to miss Week 12. Homer has three rush attempts and zero targets on the year.
