Rams’ Designate Two Key Offensive Players to Return From IR

“Avila suffered a knee injury in Week 1 of the season and hasn’t played since. Additionally, Jackson has also missed a majority of the year after fracturing his scapula during the Rams’ Week 2 blowout loss to the Arizona Cardinals.

Rams head coach Sean McVay said Jackson and Avila would “start their clocks” to return from IR. McVay shared that Jackson will play against Miami on Monday night, while there is also a possibility Avila could too.

“Good thing is we got an extra day to be able to kind of get that figured out leading into the Dolphins [game], which we know is going to be a great challenge,” McVay said via the team transcript.”

“QB Tua Tagovailoa has been excellent since his return from injured reserve two weeks ago. He has completed 80.3% of his passes with three touchdowns and no interceptions in the past two games. Against Buffalo, Tagovailoa led Miami’s offense on its longest drive since 2018 — a 14-play, 97-yard drive that was capped off by a 14-yard touchdown pass to RB De’Von Achane.

Rams player to watch

DT Braden Fiske had two sacks of the Seahawks’ Geno Smith, and the rookie from Florida State also had two tackles for loss in a dominant showing. The Rams drafted Fiske with the hope he could replace some of the interior disruption Aaron Donald provided for so many years, and Fiske is starting to grow into that role with three sacks and four tackles for loss in his past five games.”

“Little by little, the Los Angeles Rams are getting healthier. Heading into this season, the Rams were viewed as a true contender after a solid draft class and heavy offensive spending during free agency.

That was all derailed when they were struck with the injury bug, forcing them to max out their allotted IR spots.”
