  Rams RB Todd Gurley (quad) is out for Sunday's game against the 49ers, a team source tells ESPN's Lindsay Thiry. The team has promoted RB John Kelly from the practice squad.

• Gurley doubtful for Week 6
  Rams RB Todd Gurley (quad) is listed as doubtful for Sunday's game against the 49ers after missing practice all week. His status beyond Week 6 is unclear. Gurley's absence this weekend leaves Los Angeles' backfield to Malcolm Brown and Darrell Henderson. We're expecting Brown to handle most of the early-down and red-zone work, with Henderson operating in a change-of-pace role. Note that this isn't a great matchup against a ‘Niners squad sitting 5th in Football Outsiders' run defense rankings and 2nd in adjusted fantasy points allowed to RBs. Full Story

The Rams are "preparing as if [Gurley] doesn't go" on Sunday, Rapoport adds. His absence would leave Malcolm Brown as Los Angeles' lead back, with rookie Darrell Henderson in a change-of-pace role.

We'd be surprised if this kept Gurley from playing against the Rams on Sunday, but we'll keep an eye on him over the next couple of days. Gurley's absence would leave Malcolm Brown as Los Angeles' lead back. Full Story
