Despite “hand” and “Fourth of July” being in the same sentence, I’m told this was not a fireworks accident for #Rams OL Via @MikeGarafolo on X

What happened: Mike Garafolo said Dedich has all his fingers after the hand accident. The Rams placed Dedich on the non-football injury list on July 25.

Why it matters: The designation keeps Dedich out of practice but permits his activation at any point during training camp. Remaining on NFI after the roster cutdown would sideline him for at least six weeks.

What to watch: Dedich's activation and first training-camp practice are the next markers.
