Rams running back out with partial groin tear

ST. LOUIS (AP) -- St. Louis Rams running back Steven Jackson will miss at least one week with a partial tear of his left groin, an injury sustained in the fourth quarter of Sunday's 24-3 loss at Tampa Bay.

Rookie Brian Leonard, a second-round pick from Rutgers, will get his first start Sunday at Dallas. Coach Scott Linehan said Jackson would be week to week.

The 0-3 Rams learned they lost Jackson a day after guard Mark Setterstrom was lost for the season with a torn left knee ligament and cartilage damage. Setterstrom is the second lineman the Rams have lost this season, after seven-time Pro Bowl tackle Orlando Pace injured his shoulder in the opener.

Linehan said Jackson, who had 115 yards on 30 carries, was hurt making a cut. He said Jackson stayed in the game for a while after being hurt but said it was "noticeable" that Jackson was injured.

torn is worse than pulled

one week? seems incredibly optimistic for a guy who depends on explosion

"Explosion" may be a poor choice of words when referencing the groin.

Also reported on the radio station 590 the fan (STL) that Mark Bulger has 2 broken ribs. He got that in the game with SF and he may play this weekend against the Cowboys. Also the Rams starting center Mark Setterstrom tore his ACL and is out for the year.
