NFL injury updates, latest league news from Saturday, Jan. 29

A missing piece of the Los Angeles Rams defense is returning in time for Championship Sunday.

Rams linebacker Ernest Jones was activated from injured reserve on Saturday and is expected to be active versus the 49ers in the NFC Championship Game.
