All-Pros Nacua, Garrett Could Miss Week of Practice with Rams to Rest Minor Injuries, McVay Says
Sean McVay said the Rams will err on the side of caution as Nacua and Garrett manage soft-tissue and knee issues.
- All-Pros Puka Nacua and Myles Garrett will likely miss practice this week to rest minor injuries, Los Angeles Rams coach Sean McVay announced Monday. Both could sit out Tuesday and Thursday's joint practice with the New Orleans Saints.
- Nacua, the NFL receptions leader, developed psoas muscle soreness during a joint practice against the Dallas Cowboys last week. Garrett, the sacks leader, has been managing intermittent knee swelling during his first season with the Rams.
- McVay emphasized that the Rams want both stars to be 100% healthy before returning, stating, "We want to make sure it's a return to performance." Practice reps matter, but caution takes priority with soft tissue injuries.
- Separately, retired defensive tackle Aaron Donald participated in a second formal workout at the Rams facility on Saturday, listed as a "tryout" on the NFL transaction report Sunday. McVay called it "part of his process" regarding a potential comeback.
- Rookie offensive lineman Keagen Trost faces a different setback, sidelined for "a few weeks" after injuring his hamstring during the preseason opener in Kansas City last Saturday. The third-round pick from Missouri is competing for a backup job.
