The Los Angeles Rams have picked up another injury, this time during Thursday's practice. Starting safety Kam Curl became the latest to go down.

According to The Athletic's Nate Atkins, the veteran defensive back suffered an ankle injury in practice but the severity of it is unknown at the moment. Curl was listed as limited on the official injury report.

Rams safety Kam Curl suffered an ankle injury in today’s practice.

We’ll find out more about it from Sean McVay tomorrow.

Curl has played in over 2,200 snaps for the team across 38 regular-season games since his arrival in Los Angeles in 2024 and inked a three-year extension with the team this past offseason.

Curl has recorded 279 snaps this season, accounting for 89 percent of the team's defensive

snaps. He has 22 total tackles and two pass deflections so far. He most notably saved the Rams' 2025 season with his overtime interception of Caleb Williams, leading to the game-winning field goal over the Chicago Bears in the Divisional Round.

If Curl is unable to play against the Arizona Cardinals this Sunday, Quentin Lake could play a more traditional safety role and Josh Wallace would likely see more snaps, too. Curl has played in every game so far this season.
