Rams tail back Darrell Henderson was removed from practice on Monday following a thumb injury, but he has now been diagnosed with a mild thumb sprain and should be ready for the regular-season opener vs. Chicago. (Adam Schefter on Twitter)

Fantasy Impact:

It's a huge sigh of relief for Henderson, as him missing time would be another huge blow for the Rams who already lost RB Cam Akers for the 2021 season last month. Henderson's value in fantasy remains unchanged with this news, as remains the clear cut starter in Los Angeles. Should Henderson suffer a setback and miss Week 1, RB Xavier Jones would be the presumed starter.
