Sean McVay shares disappointing update on Myles Garrett's return timeline
Rams star Myles Garrett isn't yet ready to return to practice next week, which would be the first time he's eligible to come off injured reserve.
According to Sean McVay, the Los Angeles Rams are unlikely to see Myles Garrett return from injured reserve as early as Week 6. McVay revealed this during a press conference on Saturday, confirming that Garrett is not anticipated to participate in practice during the upcoming week. The star player is currently recuperating from a knee injury that necessitated surgery following the Rams' Week 1 defeat against the San Francisco 49ers.
Garrett's fourth missed game means he would be cleared from the Injured Reserve list, but additional time is required before he can be activated. NFL Network's Ian Rapoport had earlier reported that the quarterback had been given a six-week recovery period, which would have allowed him to return in Week 8 against the Los Angeles Chargers. As of now, Garrett is not projected to return to practice next week, as stated by McVay.
