The Los Angeles Rams’ task in their huge NFC West battle with the Arizona Cardinals took a sour twist on Monday.
The Rams will face the division leaders without their elite DB Jalen Ramsey and TE Tyler Higbee.
Both players have landed on the COVID-19/reverse list.

The loss of Ramsey is critical as he is arguably the best DB in the NFL and would have played a major role in diminishing passing options for Arizona and Kyler Murray.
Higbee has 44 catches for 395 yards with a trio of touchdown receptions in 2021.
