NFL Note - Los Angeles Rams Talib, Aqib

CB Aqib Talib, who missed eight games while recovering from ankle surgery, returned to practice after being designated to return from the reserve/injured list and could be in the lineup on Sunday.

By rule, the Rams have 21 days to decide whether to activate him to the active roster but they hope to get him on the field sooner rather than later. "I'm gonna just practice," Talib said. "Everything else is going to be on the training staff and the coaches. I'm gonna just practice. I'll guess they're going to do the eye test or whatever to see if I'm gonna go Sunday or not. But I'm gonna just practice." Said Rams head coach Sean McVay: "A lot of that's predicated on when he gets checked out with the doctors - does everything give the thumbs up? I know he's feeling good and he's really pushed it - had some really good workouts with (trainer) Reggie (Scott). But a lot of it too, especially when you're talking about a player of his caliber, but also his experience - you value his feedback that he's giving you. As far as if he's ready to go, those are things that as the week progresses, we'll figure that out, but that'll be a collaboration of, from the doctors hearing and seeing how Aqib does."
