Los Angeles Rams LB Byron Young posted five total stops, including four of the solo variety, while adding two sacks, two tackles for loss and two quarterback hits in Week 2 against the Tennessee Titans.
Link to storyLos Angeles Rams S Kamren Kinchens posted game highs with 10 total stops and seven solo tackles in Week 2 against the Tennessee Titans.
Link to storyLos Angeles Rams RB Blake Corum ran five times for 44 yards and his first NFL touchdown in Week 2 against the Tennessee Titans. He was not targeted in the pass game.
Footballguys view: Corum should be added in all but short bench leagues. He could be a matchup flex if he keeps getting goal line carries, and Corum showed more juice than Kyren Williams in the win over the Titans. |
Los Angeles Rams TE Davis Allen had an 8-yard touchdown on his lone target in Week 2 against the Tennessee Titans.

Los Angeles Rams TE Tyler Higbee posted four receptions for 37 yards on four targets in Week 2 against the Tennessee Titans.

Los Angeles Rams WR Jordan Whittington had two receptions for 42 yards on two targets in Week 2 against the Tennessee Titans.
Link to storyLos Angeles Rams WR Puka Nacua ended up with eight receptions for 91 yards and a touchdown on nine targets in Week 2 against the Tennessee Titans, while posting a 45-yard touchdown run on his only attempt.
Footballguys view: Nacua's 45-yard rushing score would leave many running backs envious. The Rams emphasized Davante Adams more early in the game, but Nacua can't be held down for long. He may end up being the most valuable receiver in fantasy football this season - if he and Matthew Stafford can stay healthy. |

Los Angeles Rams WR Davante Adams posted six receptions for a game-high 106 yards and a touchdown on 13 targets in Week 2 against the Tennessee Titans.
Footballguys view: The Rams wanted to feature Adams more this week, and they did with excellent results. There's no doubt that Puka Nacua is the most valuable receiver in this offense, but Adams can still be good enough to be an every-week high floor WR2 start. He and the Rams will be tested by the Eagles next week. |

Los Angeles Rams RB Kyren Williams ran 17 for a team-best 66 yards in Week 2 against the Tennessee Titans, while adding two receptions for 14 yards on two targets.
Footballguys view: Williams gave way to Blake Corum at the goal line, and Corum's touch share was up to about 1/3 of the backfield work, in a bad sign for Williams weekly ceiling going forward. He's more RB2 than RB1 for fantasy, and going against a tough Eagles defense in Week 3. |
Los Angeles Rams QB Matthew Stafford completed 23-of-33 passes for 298 yards, two touchdowns and one interception in Week 2 against the Tennessee Titans, and he ran twice for minus-6 yards.
Footballguys view: Stafford had a strong game even though his offensive guard duo is banged up and the Titans best defender is a defensive tackle. He got Davante Adams more involved today and showed he can be playable as a QB2/Superflex in the right matchup. Next week vs. the defending champion Eagles is probably not that matchup. |

Los Angeles Rams WR Puka Nacua lined up in the slot 67 percent of the time in Week 1, which was up from 29 percent last year.
Footballguys view: As Pro Football Focus' Nathan Jahnke notes, Los Angeles made multiple changes to its wide receiver room, moving on from both Cooper Kupp and Demarcus Robinson, replacing them with Davante Adams and moving Tutu Atwell and Jordan Whittington up to third and fourth on the depth chart. But Nacua remained a focal point. Despite missing some time for a concussion evaluation, he caught 10 passes for 130 yards. Adams caught four passes for 51 yards, and everyone else on the team was held to one or two receptions. Expect Nacau to continue being the lead piece in this passing attack. |

Los Angeles Rams OG Steve Avila (ankle) suffered an ankle injury during the Week 1 game and is considered questionable to return.
Link to storyUpdating a previous report, Los Angeles Rams TE Colby Parkinson (shoulder) was able to return to the Week 1 game against the Houston Texans after leaving with a shoulder injury.
Footballguys view: Considering he returned to action, it's reasonable to believe the injury is not serious. He logged a one-yard catch at the start of the second quarter before his injury. The Rams play the Titans in Week 2. We'll follow up on Parkinson's availability as developments warrant. |

Updating a previous report, Los Angeles Rams WR Puka Nacua (concussion) was evaluated for concussion in the first half of the Week 1 game against the Houston Texans, but he was able to return to the field.
Footballguys view: Nacua caught a pass over the middle near the end of the first quarter. But linebacker Henry To'oTo'o used his helmet to initiate contact, giving Nacua a helmet-to-helmet blow. Nacua, who had a bleeding laceration on the side of his face, was taken to the locker room for further evaluation before being cleared to return. He finished the day with 10 catches for 110 yards despite playing with a large bandage over his right eye to protect the cut. We'll watch for more, but expect Nacua to play as usual against the Titans in Week 2. |

Los Angeles Rams practice squad RB Cody Schrader was elevated to the active roster Saturday, Sept. 6, and will be available for the Week 1 game.
Footballguys view: It's an interesting move for the Rams here. Schrader is a good all-purpose back who could serve as the team's no.3 runner behind Kyren Williams and Blake Corum. We will monitor him in super deep dynasty formats. |
Los Angeles Rams OT Rob Havenstein (non-injury) did not participate in practice Friday, Sept. 5, but is not on the injury report for Week 1. OT Alaric Jackson (illness) and CB Ahkello Witherspoon (knee) were limited during practice but are not on the injury report.

Los Angeles Rams OT Alaric Jackson (illness) fully participated in practice Wednesday, Sept. 3.
Link to storyLos Angeles Rams OT Alaric Jackson (illness) will be evaluated during the week but is on track to play in Week 1, according to head coach Sean McVay.
Link to storyLos Angeles Rams QB Matthew Stafford (back) is expected to play in the Week 1 game, according to head coach Sean McVay.
Footballguys view: After practicing fully all last week without setbacks -- including participating in 11-on-11 drills -- Stafford appears on track. McVay's confidence is evident. Of course, that assurance comes with a caveat: Stafford is managing a lingering back injury, and though he's deemed "ready to play," there's widespread concern about whether he can play well when hit. We'll find out more about that Sunday, when the Rams take on a tough Texans defense. |

The Los Angeles Rams re-signed free-agent TE Mark Redman to the practice squad on Wednesday, Aug. 27.
Link to storyFree-agent RB Ronnie Rivers (Rams), RB Cody Schrader (Rams), WR Tru Edwards (Rams) and WR Brennan Presley (Rams) were signed to the Los Angeles Rams practice squad Wednesday, Aug. 27.
Footballguys view: Let's keep an eye on these running backs, and Schrader is a player in crazy deep dynasty we'll monitor. Schrader was undrafted coming out of Missouri in 2024, and he's spent time with the 49ers and the Rams. He's adept at running in wide zone, and that's a system he could produce within if given the opportunity. |
