Rams won't rush Nacua, Garrett back to practice

CoachNews newsroom brief · 17m ago · 1 min read · via espn.com

The Rams want Puka Nacua and Myles Garrett to be 100% healthy before they return from injuries, coach Sean McVay said.

The Los Angeles Rams are taking a cautious approach with their injured players, and that's music to the ears of fantasy football enthusiasts and fans alike. Coach Sean McVay's emphasis on getting Puka Nacua and Myles Garrett 100% healthy before returning to practice is a responsible move, especially considering the long-term implications of rushing back from injuries.

This approach is particularly notable given the Rams' expectations for the upcoming season. By prioritizing player health, McVay is demonstrating a commitment to his team's success over the entire season, rather than just focusing on short-term gains. It's also worth noting that this strategy may impact the team's early-season performance, but it's a calculated risk that could pay off in the long run.

As we head into the preseason, all eyes will be on Nacua and Garrett's progress. Will they be ready to go for Week 1, or will the Rams continue to exercise caution? Keep an eye on the team's practice reports and injury updates to gauge their readiness. Additionally, monitor the performance of other Rams players who may step up in their absence, as these preseason storylines can have a significant impact on fantasy football lineups and team success.
