First came a dislocated left elbow. Then a broken left hand. Next was a sprained right shoulder. And yesterday in the Rams first quarter against Chicago, linebacker Pisa Tinoisamoa suffered a fractured right hand.
He was replaced by veteran Dexter Coakley at outside linebacker against the Bears and did not return.
Tinoisamoa’s string of injuries began with the elbow injury in Week 2 at San Francisco. Yesterday’s game against Chicago marked the first time since that injury that Tinoisamoa did not have the elbow wrapped or fitted for a brace.
