Rams' Final Injury Report for Wild Card Round vs. Cardinals

The Rams have released its final injury report ahead of the Wild Card Round matchup against the Cardinals.

Rams coach Sean McVay said Saturday that safety Taylor Rapp will not play in the Wild Card round matchup, as he remains in concussion protocol. Therefore, the Rams will be without Rapp and Jordan Fuller – the two starting safeties. That means some combination of Nick Scott, Terrell Burgess and Eric Weddle will hold things down on the backend between the two safety spots.

As for the Cardinals, they had just one player miss practice on Saturday – a drastic upgrade from where they started the week. Though, six Cardinals are listed as questionable for game-day.

Here's how the Rams and Cardinals stack up regarding each team's final injury report leading up to the Wild Card Round matchup inside SoFi Stadium:
