THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. -- The Los Angeles Rams placed tight end Cory Harkey on injured reserve and promoted cornerback Troy Hill from the practice squad on Tuesday, two days before a road game against the Seattle Seahawks.
Harkey injured a triceps muscle while working out after Friday's practice and was deemed too sore to play in Sunday's eventual 42-14 loss to the Atlanta Falcons. The 26 year old was in his fifth season with the Rams and is one of their core leaders, serving as a valuable part of their special-teams unit and in their blocking scheme.
