Myles Garrett acknowledges knee injury is significant after 0-tackle debut in Rams' Australia loss

Garrett said knee swelling left him not 100% healthy, and he finished with zero tackles and no quarterback pressure in a 27-7 loss.

  • On Friday, the San Francisco 49ers defeated the Los Angeles Rams 27-7 at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, marking the NFL's first regular-season game ever played in Australia.
  • Defensive end Myles Garrett struggled in his Rams debut, failing to record a tackle or sack while acknowledging a lingering knee injury prevented him from performing at full capacity.
  • Quarterback Brock Purdy threw three touchdown passes to three different receivers as San Francisco's offense dominated, while stars George Kittle and Nick Bosa returned from serious injuries to contribute.
  • Garrett admitted postgame he produced "the worst version of myself that I've put out there," revealing his knee was not 100% healthy entering the game against San Francisco.
  • Three-Time Defensive Player of the Year Aaron Donald will rejoin the Rams' defense as early as next Monday against the New York Giants, potentially bolstering a unit that struggled Friday.
