Patriots quarterback Cam Newton (abdomen) and starting cornerback J.C. Jackson (hip/knee) will play in Thursday Night Football.
It is not a surprise, but they were among the 14 players the Patriots listed as questionable.
The Patriots’ inactives are strong safety Terrence Brooks, quarterback Brian Hoyer, running back J.J. Taylor (quadriceps), defensive tackle Isaiah Mack and tight end Jordan Thomas.
Rams kicker Matt Gay will play. He was a limited participant in Wednesday’s practice with a shoulder injury, and the Rams designated him as questionable.
