Sean McVay expects Van Jefferson and Troy Hill to contribute immediately and Brian Allen is back practicing as well. Alaric Jackson will take over full time at left tackle.
.
So, OL Sunday could look like: Jackson, Aboushi/Evans, Allen, Aboushi/Skura, Havenstein.
Sean McVay says they may be able to start discussion about RB Kyren Williams’ 21-day return window after this week; indication is it’s a developing situation with his recovery but not a discussion for this specific week.
The Rams waived C/G Jeremiah Kolone, who had been filling in as their center as two starters suffered injuries. This indicates more positive progress for Brian Allen, who the Rams expect back this week, and for Matt Skura as depth. Kolone can sign to PS after clearing waivers.
(OK, context: on getting Van Jefferson back in receiving corps…Coen also called Jefferson a “joy to be around every day” and said Jefferson hit over 21MPH in practice yesterday and was mad he wasn’t going faster)
Rams HC Sean McVay said Cam Akers is out for Sunday’s game vs. 49ers. WR Brandon Powell (ankle) will be questionable but is expected to play. WR Van Jefferson and DB Troy Hill will be activated off of IR and play Sunday.
While Rams LB Travin Howard and RB Kyren Williams were designated for return this week, Sean McVay said they will keep both of them in their 21-day windows – an indication that they won’t be activated this week.
49ers Deebo Samuel, Kyle Juszczyk, Arik Armstead, Dre Greenlaw listed as out for Sunday’s game against Rams.
Deebo Samuel, as well as 3 others, have already been ruled out for the 49ers in Week 8. Brandon Powell is questionable for the Rams. https://t.co/aPkwdnDAVJ
