Brown (ankle) is active Sunday against the 49ers. Brown will avoid missing the Week 3 matchup, despite being a dreaded late addition to the injury report. The Texas A&M product should continue to be the main man for the Rams at nose tackle.
Brown (ankle) is listed as questionable for Sunday's game against the 49ers, Gary Klein of the Los Angeles Times reports. Brown was a Thursday addition to the injury report, which is rarely a good sign for a player's availability Sunday. If Brown can't play against San Francisco, Desjuan Johnson and Neville Gallimore will be called upon to play more behind Kobie Turner and Braden Fiske up front on the Rams' defensive line.
Brown will make his return to the field after being activated from injured reserve Saturday following an MCL sprain in his knee in Week 5. The 23-year-old will be back in his role as the primary backup option behind Kobie Turner at nose tackle.
Brown hurt his knee Week 5 against Philadelphia and was diagnosed with an MCL sprain. He was designated to return from IR this past Monday and logged a trio of full practices during Week 11 prep. Prior to getting hurt, Brown had been logging around half of Los Angeles' defensive snaps and had compiled 13 tackles (six solo) over five contests.
Brown sustained a sprained MCL just over five weeks ago, so it's relatively impressive that he has a chance to return to practice Wednesday. The Rams will have 21 days to officially activate Brown before they'd have to shut him down for the rest of the campaign.
