LA Rams v. Cardinals: Who's In? Who's Out?

LOS ANGELES, CA -- Los Angeles Rams rookie receivers Pharoh Cooper and Nelson Spruce fully participated in today's practice at California Lutheran University, a team official said.

Cooper (shoulder) and Spruce (knee) have not played in the regular season because of injuries suffered during the preseason.

Cornerback E.J. Gaines, who has also been sidelined throughout the regular season because of a thigh injury, also fully participated in practice.

Starting defensive end William Hayes (ankle), reserve cornerback Lamarcus Joyner (toe) and reserve defensive tackle Dominique Easley (illness) did not practice. All three played in Sunday's 37-32 victory over the Tampa Bay Buccaneers.

Starting receiver Tavon Austin had limited participation because of a shoulder injury. Limited participation is considered less than 100 percent of a player's normal repetitions.

The Rams also announced they had claimed defensive back Marqui Christian on waivers from the Arizona Cardinals, who they face Sunday, waived defensive back Isaiah Johnson and signed defensive end Lynden Trail to their practice squad.
