LOS ANGELES -- The Rams have designated wide receiver Van Jefferson to return to practice from injured reserve, the team announced Monday.
Jefferson had not practiced since he had knee surgery in August. The team put him on injured reserve in late September in part because the Rams needed his roster spot due to injuries at other positions.
The Rams also designated cornerback Troy Hill and linebacker Travin Howard to return to practice.
Rams coach Sean McVay said the team would take it a day at a time, but he does expect Jefferson and Hill to contribute this week against the San Francisco 49ers.
