So who gets signed to the active roster in his place? PS guy or an outside vet thats still waiting. Maybe at another position.

Maybe just Peterson for edge depth. Or Norton for DT depth, with AD playing end more?
Besides MG's injury to undergo arthroscopic surgery on his left knee & being placed on IR... Rams have several major issues that will cause them to burn some brain cells this week. The ankle injury to our best Safety starter Kam Curl is very big. I can find no updated news on how serious his ankle is. In addition to MG ....Rams may be looking for Curl's replacement in this defense.

Project an Increase in game snaps with limited info:
#1- ED/Josaiah Stewart
#2-DL/Desjuan Johnson
#3-ED/ Wesley Bailey (MR53) won a MR spot as a UDFA Rookie who is a pure edge rusher type. My guess is WB is already getting a serious increase of reps with FIRST team defense in practice at both ED posts. Did Byron Young ever see practice last season due to his bad knee? Having both starting edge rushers with bad knees is NOT positive.

Possible upcoming roster transactions:
ED Jamie Sheriff (PS-16) played in 3 NFL gms (24-25)but he just arrived from the Seahawks. JS been around for 3 NFL preseasons mostly with Seattle with a stop in Carolina. Might be a game day call up but JS appears to offer limited NFL experience.

ED Darryl Peterson (PS-16) IMO has much more long term upside to be called up. DP is a solid complete defender who has a excellent upside.

Maybe more important is making defensive system adjustments...

The team, coaches included, looked like a pack of beaten dogs by the 2nd Q. They are lucky if this was the only injury to come from the game.
 
Even if this happened in training camp, why not get the surgery done sooner? Maybe he would have missed less games. Having an injured Garrett for the 9ers game obvoously did not help.

It just feels like things are being very mismanaged right now.

Weird start to the season.
Agree.

Injury to Stafford is just as likely as an injury to one of the starting OTs. So we can run the same "what if" on all of those positions.

And on 3rd WR, since when have McVay or Stafford liberally spread the ball around? A 3rd WR wouldn't get a lot of use.

It's a numbers game. There are 5 starting offensive linemen and 1 starting QB. There's a much higher chance (3-4x) that at least 1 o-lineman goes down than the starting QB.

Agreed that the odds change based on numbers. But there are only two starting OTs, hence the focus on thag position. The depth is good for the interior OL.

Because you can't find info on the injury, that means it's "very big" and that the rams are looking for his replacement? Some rams fans are spiraling and everything looks like the end of the world. it's time for them to step away from the internet until next Monday night.

I bet Curl is fine that's why we aren't hearing anything. Who knows but why spend 45 min creating some wild post about it. Chill until you hear a definite answer. and even if there's a big injury, it's next man up, and enjoy the season.

Question ....did you author your reply after it was posted after 11 am that Curl injury was not serious? I missed that post too...

Sorry to get you fired up. Just for your information it only takes very few minutes for me to post about my Rams.

If you permit me....may I suggest that you ignore this posting Ram fan from this point you will save yourself a ton of time.

I would ensure that MG is 100% healed & fully physically prepared before bringing him back up on the line. Far too much investment & assets were put into getting MG here. Snead has provided DC Shula has many options where MG is not needed.

Veteran Desjuan Johnson, 2nd yr Josaiah Stewart & increasingly improving rookie Westley Bailey are all there to utilize.

In addition, there are 2 other Edge Rushers riding hard on the PS-16 veteran Jamie Sheriff & rookie Darryl Peterson.
 
Boy, hindsight IS 20/20, but imagine if we correctly did surgery on Myles, mid-August when the problem originally flared up? We'd have saved him the Australia flight, and he'd be about ready to make his Rams AND SoFi debut on Monday Night Football. Would also help immensely if he were here to chase around and flush Josh Allen...
