St. Louis, MO (Sportsbooks) - St. Louis Rams running back Steven Jackson, who missed the previous four games with a partially torn groin, left Sunday's 27-20 loss to the Cleveland Browns with tightness in his lower back. Jackson scored on a two-yard run on the Rams' first drive of the game and finished with 41 yards on eight carries before departing in the second quarter. Brian Leonard, the team's second-round pick this year, replaced Jackson in the lineup. Leonard had made all four starts while Jackson was sidelined. Quarterback Marc Bulger also suffered a sprained thumb but eventually returned to the game, while offensive guard Richie Incognito sprained his right knee and was replaced by Nick Leckey. |
