The NFL is evaluating the impact the L.A. wildfires could have on the Rams-Vikings Playoff game on Monday. The Los Angeles area has been heavily affected by the wildfires due to high winds that occurred on Tuesday and are still ongoing on Wednesday.

Los Angeles Rams wide receiver Demarcus Robinson has been charged with one misdemeanor count of driving under the influence of alcohol, according to the Associated Press. This charge stems from Robinson's arrest in late November shortly after the team's matchup against the Philadelphia Eagles where he was apprehended on suspicion of DUI.

Patrol officers arrested Robinson in November. In a news release at the time, officers said they initiated an enforcement stop when they saw a car driving over 100 mph on the US-101 freeway hours after the team lost to the Philadelphia Eagles. Officers said they observed “objective signs and symptoms of alcohol impairment.”
