INGLEWOOD, Calif. (AP) — Dallas cornerback Jourdan Lewis won’t play against the Los Angeles Rams due to an ankle injury.

Star receiver Amari Cooper is in the lineup for the inaugural game at SoFi Stadium on Sunday night despite a hamstring worry.

Lewis has started 12 games over his first three seasons with Dallas, but he missed the last three weeks of practice after injuring his ankle early in training camp.

The Cowboys already are without starting right tackle La’el Collins and backup linebacker Sean Lee on injured reserve for coach Mike McCarthy's debut.

Rams: RB Raymond Calais, C Brian Allen, OL Tremayne Anchrum, WR Trishton Jackson, TE Brycen Hopkins, DL Eric Banks.
