“It’s OK right now," said Goff, who was 23 of 42 for 224 yards and an interception in the Rams' 20-9 loss at Seattle on Sunday. "It’s not terrible. We’ll see tomorrow.”
Goff was injured when he hit the thumb on a helmet in the third quarter, but was able to put it into place and didn’t miss a play.
LA also lost running back Darrell Henderson to an ankle injury in the third quarter. Henderson, who rushed for 62 yards, was hurt being tripped from behind.
In East Rutherford, New Jersey, Frank Gore ran his way to another career milestone and then was forced to watch the New York Jets' second win from the sideline.
The 37-year-old running back became the third player in NFL history to run for 16,000 yards, joining Pro Football Hall of Famers Emmitt Smith (18,355) and Walter Payton (16,726). But his 4-yard carry in the fourth quarter to put him at exactly 16,000 was his last of the 23-16 victory over Cleveland on Sunday because of a chest injury.
Coach Adam Gase had no immediate update on Gore, who finished with 14 carries for 48 yards. It's uncertain if Gore will be able to play in the season finale next Sunday at New England in what could be the last game of his NFL career. Gore has said he will talk about playing another season with his family in the offseason.
Jets backup offensive lineman Josh Andrews hurt his groin in the game, while Browns linebackers Tae Davis and Sione Takitaki injured ankles. None of them returned.
