Overview
- Myles Garrett returned from mid-September knee surgery and in Sunday’s game against Washington recorded three sacks, forced a fumble, and helped the Rams to a 20-13 win.
- Next Gen Stats showed Garrett generated six pressures on 27 pass-rush attempts for a 22.2% pressure rate while playing 35 of the Rams’ 58 defensive snaps.
- For the first time Garrett and Aaron Donald shared the field in a game and the two produced four sacks and held opponents to about 5.0 yards per play in the 23 snaps they played together.
- The performance moved Garrett’s career total to 128.5 sacks and was his ninth game with at least three sacks, figures highlighted by ESPN research and team reports.
- The Rams must now manage Garrett’s workload ahead of a trip to Arizona and a Week 11 bye while awaiting an MRI on receiver Puka Nacua’s knee that will affect short-term offensive availability.
