Aqib Talib (ankle) aiming to return for Rams Week 13

Los Angeles Rams defensive back Aqib Talib (ankle, injured reserve) said it looks like he will be "ready to go" in Week 13 against the Detroit Lions.

What It Means:

"I had a great visit with the doctor today," Talib said in an interview on NFL Network. "It looks like the week after Thanksgiving, I'll be full speed, ready to go." The week after Thanksgiving is Week 13, right after the Rams' bye. Talib has been sidelined since undergoing ankle surgery in late September, which has led to some rough outings for Marcus Peter and Los Angeles' secondary.

Talib recorded 9 tackles (8 solo) with 2 pass deflections and 1 forced fumble in three games before landing on IR.
