Myles Garrett injury update following knee surgery
Overview
Following his underwhelming debut in Melbourne, Myles Garrett underwent arthroscopic surgery on his left knee and was placed on injured reserve on September 17. While he is eligible to return after four games, the recovery timeline was extended to approximately six weeks to address lingering swelling and discomfort.
This injury timeline suggested Garrett would miss matchups against the Arizona Cardinals, Las Vegas Raiders, and Los Angeles Chargers, with a potential return around November 8 against the Washington Commanders. Head coach Sean McVay emphasized that the team would not rush his return, prioritizing long-term health. During his absence, the Rams also managed injuries to other key players, such as wide receiver Puka Nacua.
As of October 10, McVay indicated that while rehabilitation was progressing well, Garrett was unlikely to return to practice before the October 18 game against the Arizona Cardinals. By October 19, Garrett remained unable to practice as he continued his recovery, marking his sixth consecutive game missed. The Rams struggled during his absence, holding a 2-4 record and sitting at the bottom of the NFC West.
By October 23, reports indicated that Garrett is expected to return to practice next week. Although he remains on injured reserve and will miss the Week 7 matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders, he could potentially be ready to play by Week 8.
As of October 26, the timeline for Garrett’s return remains uncertain. While he is eligible to begin his 21-day practice window, McVay stated he has not yet consulted with the team’s SVP of Sports Medicine and Performance, Reggie Scott, to determine if those windows will open this week.
