Fuller recorded seven tackles (three solo) and forced a fumble during Sunday's 30-23 loss to the 49ers.
The Rams' veteran safety had an up-and-down game, stripping Deebo Samuel for a fumble that went out of bounds in the fourth quarter but also missing a few key tackles that helped lead to the Rams' demise. The Bengals talented receiving duo of Ja'Marr Chase and Tee Higgins looms large in Week 3, but if Joe Burrow (calf) misses time, a much less threatening Jake Browning would be in line to test the Rams' secondary.

Rams' Jordan Fuller: Eight tackles Sunday
Rotowire
Fuller recorded eight tackles (three solo) during Sunday's 30-13 victory against the Seahawks.
The fourth-year safety stepped back into his starting role after missing most of last season with a hamstring injury and helped anchor a Rams defense that gave up just 112 yards through the air. Fuller was one of three Rams to play every snap on defense along with Ernest Jones and Russ Yeast, and he should be busy again in Week 2 against the 49ers' potent offense.

Rams' Jordan Fuller: Questionable for Week 3
Rotowire
Fuller (hamstring) is officially considered questionable for Sunday's contest versus the Cardinals, Stu Jackson of the team's official Twitter account reports.
Fuller will likely be a game-time decision in Week 3 after he suffered a hamstring injury in Week 2 against the Falcons. The 24-year-old has been working in tandem with Taylor Rapp at strong safety, and Rapp will likely handle the bulk of the snaps at the position regardless of Fuller's status Sunday.

The Rams placed Fuller on the reserve/COVID-19 list Tuesday after he tested positive for the virus.
The safety was one of several Rams players placed on the list following Monday's win over the Cardinals.

Rams' Jordan Fuller: Impressive rookie season
Rotowire
Fuller notched 60 tackles (42 solo), five pass breakups and three interceptions across 12 games in 2020.
Fuller burst onto the scene in Los Angeles as a Week 1 starter at strong safety, and though he missed four games due to a neck injury, the 2020 sixth-round pick didn't miss a step upon returning to action. Once he was back to full health Week 11 -- when he picked off Tom Brady twice in a win over the Buccaneers -- Fuller played 100 percent in each of the Rams' subsequent contests, including both of the team's playoff games. While Fuller's numbers didn't necessarily thrust him into the mix as an every-week IDP fantasy option, he'll be worth keeping an eye on heading into Year 2.

Rams' Jordan Fuller: Picks off Brady twice Monday
Rotowire
Fuller recorded four tackles, all solo, and two interceptions across 69 defensive snaps in Monday's win over the Buccaneers.
The rookie burst onto the scene in iconic fashion, recording not one, but two interceptions (the first of his career) of Tom Brady during Monday Night Football. It was only Fuller's second game back from a three-game absence due to a neck injury. He has played in about 51 percent of the defensive snaps this season, but given his stellar performance Monday, he may be in store for more reps sooner rather than later.

We may not get clarification on how the two will line up until the Rams take the field Sunday.

Rotowire
Fuller (shoulder) is questionable for Sunday's game versus the Giants, Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com reports.
Fuller suffered a shoulder injury during this past Sunday's loss to the Bills, and he was able to practice all week, albeit in a limited capacity. If he's forced to sit out Sunday, expect 2019 second-round pick Taylor Rapp to bump into a starting role.
