Receiver Mike Sims-Walker made his preseason debut for the Rams on Saturday night. His time was cut short by a groin injury.

He’s now expected to miss the Rams’ second preseason game entirely.

“He’s a little sore,” coach Steve Spagnuolo said Sunday regarding Sims-Walker, via comments distributed by the team. “He’s weak in the groin. They didn’t do an MRI right now, they’re just going to wait. If it doesn’t improve they’ll take a picture of it. He’s doubtful going into this particular week’s game.”

The Rams are still without receiver Donnie Avery, who is recovering from a torn ACL suffered last year. The Rams host the Titans on Saturday night.

“He’s weak in the groin."

Not exactly something you want your head coach saying about you.

Especially when you were once suspended for a "late night rendezvous with a lady friend"

Yeah, it could definitely be taken the wrong way.

He’s weak in the groin...If it doesn’t improve they’ll take a picture of it.

Don't get your hopes up Florio!

“He’s weak in the groin. If it doesn’t improve they’ll take a picture of it.”

Didn't Brett Favre try this approach with a certain reporter?

Back to seriousness...regular season, I bet that he'd play. This is a preseason "better safe than sorry" thing.

Maybe he can hire Travis Henry as a personal trainer. 11 kids with 10 different mothers has to mean something, am I right?

In contrast, how would it sound to say, "he's strong in the groin"?

I hope / trust SW will be fine. Don't play next week. Those team doctors & trainers better earn their money.
