In a somewhat expected move, the Los Angeles Rams announced that CB Aqib Talib will be designated to return from the injured reserve, making the star player available to participate in all team activities. Talib, a team captain, has been sidelined with an ankle injury since week 3.
Talib has said previously that he expected to return on week 13 for the road game against the Detroit Lions. He was quoted as saying, “That’s the plan. If you ask me, I’m coming back.” This move pretty must bolsters that claim, but he still needs to prove that he’s healthy enough to play in practice.
