Random Ramsdom: Cobie Durant injury could cost him some time

Los Angeles Rams News and Links for 12/10/24

In all the excitement and commotion in the Los Angeles Rams wild win over the Buffalo Bills it may have been easy to miss some injuries that accumulated during the contest. Cobie Durant is one of those injuries, and his status for Thursday is to be determined.

Puka Nacua also seemed to wound his leg Sunday, but he also looked to be over it (for the moment) when he scored the final touchdown for LA. Time will tell how serious it is.

If LA wants to march forward into the postseason they need to stay healthy. Time will tell if they can or not. In the meantime, please comment on whatever you want, thanks for checking out Turf Show Times and have a great day!

“The Rams’ decision last week to claim cornerback Emmanuel Forbes Jr., a 2023 first-round draft pick, off waivers from the Washington Commanders could pay an immediate dividend.

Rams coach Sean McVay said Monday that cornerback Cobie Durant suffered a lung bruise during the Rams’ victory over the Buffalo Bills on Sunday and that his status for Thursday night’s game against the San Francisco 49ers is to be determined.”

“WOODLAND HILLS, Calif. – Rams head coach Sean McVay on Monday said “we’ll see” whether tight end Tyler Higbee (knee) makes his 2024 season debut this Thursday against the 49ers (5:15 p.m. PT, Amazon Prime Video).

“I don’t have a great sense of it,” McVay said Monday morning as Los Angeles was getting started on its quick turnaround and preparation for San Francisco. “… That was always something we left open as a possibility, but certainly don’t want to rush it.”

Meanwhile, cornerback Cobie Durant sustained a lung contusion (bruised lung). McVay said Durant is “going to be okay,” but his status for Thursday is still to be determined.

McVay said if Durant’s status is affected by his injury, “then that could definitely impact (cornerback) Emmanuel Forbes and some of the things that we do.”

“During the most recent episode of Good Morning Football, Peter Schrager raved about Los Angeles and thinks Sean McVay’s group sent a major message to the rest of the NFL.

“It was that five-alarm fire for everyone around the league: ‘Oh no, not the Rams. The Rams?’ The Rams lost to the Bears this year. We watched them lose to the Dolphins at home on Monday night,” Schrager said. “The Rams are for real and they have a coach who’s willing to lay it on the line.”

Of course, the question is whether or not the Rams dug themselves too deep of a hole to begin with.”
