ST. LOUIS, MO (AP) -- St. Louis Rams receiver Dane Looker faces more tests after a spot is found on his brain.

The spot turned up in a CAT scan aimed at determining if he was recovered from a concussion suffered Sept. 28th against Buffalo. He says the spot is unrelated to the concussion.

Looker won't be cleared to play until more is known about the spot.

Looker has six receptions for 108 yards and a touchdown this season.

The Rams re-signed Eddie Kennison, who was released on Tuesday with the expectation Looker would be fine. Kennison was signed Sept. 9th after Drew Bennett was sidelined with a broken foot in the opener. He has played sparingly in two games, with no catches.
