Myles Garrett is undergoing knee surgery after sustaining an injury that affects his availability for the Los Angeles Rams. According to multiple reports, the Rams’ Week 1 game showed the severity of the issue as Garrett did not record a tackle in their loss to the San Francisco 49ers.
Rams coach Sean McVay says he does not have a clear timeline for Garrett’s return. Fox Sports reports the team’s training camp included managing the injury and frames the decision for surgery as the next step based on what they saw in actual game action. The New York Post similarly describes the update as unclear, noting that McVay’s comments do not provide an exact timetable. Yahoo Sports adds that McVay defends having played Garrett in Week 1 despite the loss and continues to focus on his recovery rather than committing to a specific date.
