Rams Rumors: Aqib Talib to Be Placed on IR with Rib Injury, Could Return

The Los Angeles Rams will reportedly put cornerback Aqib Talib on injured reserve after he suffered a rib injury.

ESPN's Adam Schefter reported the news Monday, noting the veteran "could return later this season."

The 33-year-old suffered an ankle injury in 2018 that required surgery and limited him to eight regular-season games. Despite his issues in his first season with the Rams after they traded for him from the Denver Broncos, he has been fairly durable throughout his career.

The 6'1", 209-pound corner has played at least 10 games in each of his first 10 years in the league and appeared in at least 13 in eight of them.
