THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. -- With an already thin backfield, the Los Angeles Rams have avoided losing another running back despite Darrell Henderson leaving practice Monday with an apparent hand injury.
Tests revealed that Henderson suffered a mild thumb sprain that is not expected to keep him out of the season opener against the Chicago Bears on Sept. 12, a source told ESPN's Adam Schefter.
A third-year pro, Henderson was moved into the starting role entering training camp after rising star Cam Akers tore his right Achilles tendon while working out before training camp.
