Matthew Stafford's elbow scare looks like a non-story. The Rams quarterback was a full participant in Wednesday's practice, days after being spotted with ice on his throwing arm following Los Angeles' win over the Chargers.

Stafford addressed the concern with a joke about his age, downplaying the soreness, and said he's 'not too worried about' the arm heading into Week 9. Coach Sean McVay had offered little detail beyond calling it soreness, but a full Wednesday workload says plenty — the veteran is on track to play.

Elsewhere on the injury front, Browns star Myles Garrett was limited in his return to practice, a step forward even if not a full one. And in Carolina, Bryce Young opened the Panthers' week with a full practice, a good early sign for his availability Sunday. Thursday and Friday sessions will firm up the final designations, but the league's midweek QB health news trended almost entirely positive.
