Myles Garrett Misses Rams-Cowboys Joint Practice With Knee Swelling
Superstar pass rusher Myles Garrett was unavailable for the Los Angeles Rams' joint practice with the Dallas Cowboys.
NFL star Myles Garrett was absent from the Los Angeles Rams' joint practice with the Dallas Cowboys on Tuesday because of swelling in his knee. Head coach Sean McVay reassured fans that Garrett's absence is a precautionary measure. Garrett informed McVay he is playing at about 85% capacity as he gets set for his first season with the Rams in 2026.
McVay emphasized that the team is being cautious with their new star player. ESPN's Lindsey Thiry reported from the joint practice that Garrett did not take part in the activity due to his knee issue. The Rams acquired Garrett in a massive trade from the Cleveland Browns earlier this offseason, sending Jared Verse and additional future draft picks for the star player.
Last year, Garrett shattered the record for most single-season sacks with 23. The Rams are scheduled to begin their preseason game against the Kansas City Chiefs at 4 p.m. ET on Saturday.
