The Rams’ defense has missed cornerback Aqib Talib. They may not be missing him for much longer.

Appearing on NFL Network, Talib said that he’s targeting a Week 13 return from an ankle injury that he suffered in Week Three.

“I had a great visit with the doctor today,” Talib said, via Alden Gonzalez of ESPN.com. “It looks like the week after Thanksgiving, I’ll be full speed, ready to go.”

The Rams have a bye on Thanksgiving weekend, and they return in Week 13 with a game at Detroit.

It means that the Rams won’t have Talib for Sunday’s game against the Seahawks, and for the Monday night showdown against the Chiefs in Mexico City.
