St. Louis, MO (Best E Casino) - St. Louis Rams running back Antonio Pittman will be sidelined the next 4-to-6 weeks due to a cracked fibula. Rams coach Scott Linehan said Pittman suffered the injury on a special teams play early in a 37-13 loss at Seattle on Sunday. "It wasn't a contact thing. It looked like he just twisted it," said Linehan. "But it does look like he will be out for a bit." Pittman has carried the ball just once this season. He's the primary backup to Steven Jackson. Linehan said because of Pittman's injury, Brian Leonard will step into the backup role.
