Rams DT Darell Scott recently underwent arthroscopic knee surgery. The knee scope will sideline Scott into the season and derail his already long shot of making the final roster. Jermelle Cudjo and Matt Conrath are expected to open the season as the primary backups to starters Michael Brockers and Kendall Langford.

Rams DT Darell Scott (concussion) has been cleared for contact. Scott has been sidelined since sustaining the concussion on special teams nearly three weeks ago. If he gets the call on Sunday, Scott will add depth to the defensive tackle rotation.

Rams DT Darell Scott was forced from Sunday's loss to the Cowboys late in the first half with a head injury, and did not return. The reserve defensive tackle suffered the injury on special teams. He remained down on the ground for several minutes, but was able to walk off the field under his own power, and will make the Rams' trip back to St. Louis with the rest of the team. More than likely, he's suffered a concussion.

Darell Scott opened Rams training camp as a starting defensive tackle. He worked next to Fred Robbins with incumbent Gary Gibson still unsigned. The Rams are believed to be interested in re-signing Gibson, but they may give Scott every opportunity win the starting job in the meantime. A third-year player and former No. 103 pick in the draft, Scott earned just 250 snaps on defense last season. He has yet to record his first career sack.
