(ESPN) Source: Rams RB Kyren Williams expected to miss multiple games

Love how in one day it went from Kyren just has a sprained ankle and will likely just miss this week to Kyren will miss the next three games (Steelers, Cowboys, Packers) and be back after the bye.
So the RB situation is:
– Kyren Williams – sprained ankle?, out 3 weeks.
– Ronnie Rivers – Grade 3 PCL strain, out 4-5 weeks.
– Zach Evans – 6th round rookie who has been active in 2/6 games with 4 carries on 6 offensive snaps. Article noted that “McVay on Monday said the Rams are still “working through” the plan without Williams and Rivers but noted that rookie running back Zach Evans got the first carries after the injuries Sunday.”
– Royce Freeman: Been active in 3/6 games but has not played a single offensive snap. Freeman is a 6th year vet who has played in 68 games and has 394 carries for 1473 rushing yards with 8 TDs.
– Myles Gaskin: Signed to Rams active roster from Vikings practice squad. Was active in 1 game for the Vikings and played 2 special teams snaps. Gaskin is a 5th year vet who has played in 39 games and had 361 carries for 1355 yards and 7 TDs.
– Darrell Henderson: Signed to practice squad, I think everyone here knows him.
Edit: Also with Williams (97) and Rivers (13) being injured and Akers (22) and Jefferson (1) getting traded that is 133/153 rushing attempts for the Rams on the season not playing. The remaining 21 attempts are by Stafford (11), Evans (4), Atwell (2), Nacua (2), and Skowronek (1).
Well picking up 2 RB when Kyren was “week to week” was a tell
Yeah this is surprising and unfortunate. Just came of that huge performance against the Cardinals, and they made it seem like he was just a little banged up. But it appears to be more than that.
Hendo baby! I would love to see him get more snaps.
Where’s CJ Anderson? 😅
Fuck it, just put Skow back there and run him like the Whiners used to run Deebo
Figures. We finally get a stud RB, immediately gets hurt.
