Kam Curl: hurts ankle in Rams opener, questionable to return

THE FACT. Rams safety Kam Curl went down with an ankle injury during Thursday night's season opener against the 49ers in Melbourne and was announced as questionable to return, per ClutchPoints' Lorenzo Reyna citing the team. Curl had two tackles before exiting, and tight end Davis Allen was also checked for a concussion in the third quarter before coming back into the game.

THE VERDICT. IDP: Curl is a top-tier tackle source at safety and any missed time matters, so watch Friday's update closely and have a replacement queued if he is not cleared. Quentin Lake and Kamren Kinchens are the Rams defensive backs already piling up tackles and are the first names to check if Curl sits. Dynasty: no reason to move off Curl on an in-game ankle without more information. The Allen scare is not fantasy-relevant.
