Rams starting cornerback E.J. Gaines is out Thursday night vs. the Seahawks.
Gaines had been listed as doubtful due to a thigh injury. Cornerback Troy Hill, who was cut then brought back after a DUI arrest last month, is the likely starter in Gaines’ place.
The Seahawks had previously listed running back C.J. Prosise and defensive end Damontre Moore as out. Linebackers Brock Coyle and Dewey McDonald were questionable; Coyle won’t play, but McDonald is active. McDonald had missed a day of practice due to illness.
Earlier Thursday, the Rams placed running back Benny Cunningham and Robert Quinn on injured-reserve. With the Rams playing for next year, it made sense to shut them down and give other players a look.
