THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. -- The Los Angeles Rams have activated cornerback Aqib Talib from injured reserve and he is expected to play Sunday against the Detroit Lions.
"He's really gotten himself ready to go faster than we anticipated when you just look at the history of this injury," coach Sean McVay said after practice Friday.
Talib was placed on injured reserve after undergoing ankle surgery following a Week 3 victory over the Los Angeles Chargers.
The Rams designated Talib to return from injured reserve at the start of the week and he participated in his first practice Wednesday.
