Rams DE Robert Quinn was simply dehydrated when rushed to hospital image

Rams defensive end Robert Quinn was rushed to the hospital early Monday after he was believed to have suffered a seizure — turns out, he just needed water.

Reports came out earlier this week that Quinn suffered a health scare after Sunday's game against the Jets. However, Quinn was released from the hospital in less than a day, and got in a full practice Friday.

"That's what I took from the whole thing," Quinn told reporters. "Drink more water — simple as that."

Questions surrounded Quinn regarding his health when the Rams drafted him in the first round of the 2011 draft because of a benign brain tumor he had removed in high school. Quinn had not experienced any issues since: not while starring for North Carolina, nor in his six seasons in the NFL.

Quinn wasn't ready to say he would play this week against the Dolphins, but he didn't rule it out, either.

"(It's) going to come down to the doctors, Fisher, and ultimately how I feel," he said. "Hopefully I can get out there on Sunday and be somewhat productive."
