Los Angeles Ram’s quarterback Jared Goff voiced his uncertainty as to whether he will be able to play in a regular season finale after sustaining a thumb injury in a 20-9 defeat to the Seattle Seahawks on Sunday.

“I’m unsure,” said Goff when asked if he can play at home against the Arizona Cardinals next Sunday. “We shall see.”

Sources told ESPN’s Adam Schefter that the Rams fear Goff’s thumb has been broken and that he will be tested further in LA on Monday.

“I saved it [a] helmet there for some time in the third quarter and put it back in place and just finished the race, ”said Goff.

Goff said his thumb didn’t bother him after that.

The Rams (9-6) have lost two consecutive games for the first time this season, but can take a playoff spot with either a win against the Cardinals (8-7) or a Green Bay Packers win against the Chicago Bears (8 -7). ) at week 17.
