Bulger, Pace and Jackson practice for Rams

Nov 26, 2008 - 11:29 PM ST. LOUIS (Ticker) -- The St. Louis Rams had three of their key offensive pieces back on the practice field Wednesday.

Quarterback Marc Bulger, offensive tackle Orlando Pace and running back Steven Jackson all practiced in preparation for Sunday's game against the Miami Dolphins.

Bulger, who left last Sunday's game after suffering a concussion on the Rams' first offensive possession, and Pace are expected to play against Miami, according to coach Jim Haslett.

"I don't know if he passed it with flying colors, but he passed," Haslett said of Bulger's neuropsych test Wednesday. "I would think those two based off what I saw today, they'd be okay."

A seven-year veteran, Bulger took the majority of snaps with the first team offense while Pace took part in about half of the practice reps.

Jackson, who has missed four of the last five games and three straight with a thigh injury, received a little less than half the carries with the starting offense but has not yet been declared ready to play Sunday.

"We'll see how Steven is tomorrow," Haslett said. "He's the one that we're not really sure about. We'll see how he feels tomorrow and if he feels alright we'll probably increase the load a little bit and then obviously Friday's a little bit easier day."
