Overview

  • Head coach Sean McVay said Kevin Dotson, who sprained his ankle in Week 1, will play Sunday against the Titans.
  • The Rams’ final Friday injury report listed Steve Avila (ankle) and Colby Parkinson (shoulder) as doubtful, making them unlikely to dress.
  • If Avila cannot go, second-year lineman Beaux Limmer is the leading option at left guard, with Justin Dedich available for interior depth.
  • Tennessee ruled out defensive tackle T'Vondre Sweat and right tackle JC Latham, though interior star Jeffery Simmons remains a central matchup concern.
  • Offensive-line availability remains a broader issue for Los Angeles, which has dealt with recurring interior injuries since 2022 that have affected early-season performance.
