Overly cautious Warner has 'normal' MRI checkup after leaving practice
ST. LOUIS (AP) -- Kurt Warner, the St. Louis Rams' quarterback who sustained a concussion in the regular-season finale, left practice early Thursday for a checkup and an MRI exam. "Everything was normal," trainer Jim Anderson told the St. Louis Post-Dispatch. Anderson said Warner was cleared to play by Ralph Dacy, chief of neurosurgery at Washington University Medical Center. The Rams will open the playoffs Saturday at New Orleans. Results of the MRI exam weren't immediately available, but head coach Mike Martz said it was "just a precautionary deal." "He doesn't have any symptoms, he just feels a little different," Martz said. "Obviously, they'll double check to make sure he's fine." Earlier this week, Warner said he was injured on a sack at the end of the first quarter of the Rams' 26-21 victory against New Orleans. Concussion symptoms worsened as the game continued and he was removed after one series in the third quarter.
