Overview
- Myles Garrett underwent arthroscopic knee surgery and was placed on injured reserve, a move that requires a minimum absence under NFL IR rules.
- Coach Sean McVay said Garrett is attending meetings and making steady progress in rehab but refused to commit to any specific return date.
- Media reports offer conflicting timelines, with NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reporting roughly six weeks and other team-linked sources suggesting a sooner return is possible.
- Garrett’s absence compounds Los Angeles’s injury problems, which have included missed time for Aaron Donald and a sidelined cornerback, and it alters the Rams’ short-term pass‑rush plan.
- The team says it will provide updates only when medical staff and Garrett are ready, so the next clear signal will come from official Rams health reports.
