Rams' Clay Matthews: Unable to practice

Matthews was officially listed as a non-participant for Wednesday's practice due to a back injury.

Matthews logged his first sack as a member of the Rams last week and played 46 defensive snaps in the game, so this news is a bit concerning. Even though the team could be giving the veteran a rest day, the fact that Matthews was unable to practice puts his Week 2 availability up in the air. If he can't go Sunday, Natrez Patrick would be the favorite to see an increase in snaps at outside linebacker.
