Garrett faces six-week recovery after knee surgery
The defensive end has been placed on injured reserve, with reports identifying Week 9 as his most likely return.
Los Angeles Rams defensive end Myles Garrett is expected to miss about six weeks after knee surgery, according to a report by Yahoo Sports citing Ian Rapoport. The Rams have placed him on injured reserve.
The report identifies the Rams’ Week 9 game against the Washington Commanders as his most likely return. That date is not confirmed, and Garrett reportedly hopes to come back sooner.
Garrett played through the knee problem in the Rams’ Week 1 loss to the 49ers, after limited training-camp practice and no preseason appearances. The team had described the issue as knee swelling.
Injured reserve requires at least four weeks out. The reported six-week recovery estimate would keep Garrett sidelined longer, though the available information does not specify the procedure or confirm a return timetable.
