The Los Angeles Rams placed another key starter on the COVID-19 list on Saturday, as Andrew Whitworth’s status is now in doubt for Week 16’s game against the Minnesota Vikings. The 40-year-old left tackle has been the measure of consistency and health throughout his college and pro career, but missed seven games in 2020 and is in danger of missing his second game of 2021, albeit because of these unusual times that we live in.
Also unusual is the remarkable recovery for running back Cam Akers, who was activated to the 53-man roster on Saturday.
