Los Angeles Rams tight end Davis Allen sidelined with quad injury

Los Angeles Rams tight end Davis Allen, a former Clemson standout, has been diagnosed with a soft‑tissue quad injury. Coach Sean McVay said the player will be handled on a day‑to‑day, week‑to‑week basis and the team does not want to rush his return, indicating he could miss several weeks of practice and early preseason action.

With Allen unavailable, the Rams are evaluating internal depth options—including Mark Redman, Rohan Jones and Dan Villari—as well as potential free‑agent signings such as tight end Donald Parham, who recently worked out with the Washington Commanders after recovering from an Achilles tear. The team’s focus remains on getting Allen back for the regular season while ensuring adequate coverage in 12‑ and 13‑personnel packages.
