Rams Downgrade LB Bryan Kehl To Out

The St. Louis Rams have downgraded linebacker Bryan Kehl to "Out" for Sunday's game against the Arizona Cardinals.

Kehl had been listed as "Questionable" with a sprained ankle.

A 2008 fourth-round pick out of BYU by the New York Giants, Kehl was claimed off waivers by the Rams last September. In 21 games with the Rams, Kehl has 43 tackles, including a season-high as the starting strong side linebacker in St. Louis' 31-21 win over the New Orleans Saints.

With Kehl out, and Brady Poppinga questionable with a calf injury, the Rams will be thin at the linebacker position on Sunday. Below is an updated look at the Rams-Cardinals injury report.
