WOODLAND HILLS, Calif. \u2013 Head coach Sean McVay gave some injury updates on Monday following the Rams’ season opener. Offensive linemen Kevin Dotson<\/a> and Steve Avila<\/a> are both “week-to-week” with ankle sprains, while tight end Colby Parkinson<\/a> sustained an AC joint sprain in his shoulder, but still finished Sunday’s game against the Texans.<\/p>\n

McVay said Dotson has a lateral ankle sprain, specifically, but didn’t go into detail on Avila, who returned to the game in the fourth quarter after not originally planning to. When asked if Dotson or Avila will miss time, McVay said he’d have more information on their projected workloads on Wednesday, but there’s still a possibility they practice this week and play against the Titans on Sunday.<\/p>\n

“When I say week-to-week, I mean, it’s really kind of day-to-day,” McVay said. “So there’s a possibility they could practice. There’s a possibility they might not… I know I’ll have more information and a little bit more clarity as we have a little bit of time for them to get their rehab, see how they respond post-24 hours and 48 hours.”<\/p>\n

He also didn’t know whether Parkinson will miss time or not, saying he’ll have more details on that Wednesday as well.<\/p>\n

Apart from those injuries, other Rams players got some “typical bumps and bruises” that included tight end Davis Allen’s knee and offensive lineman Rob Havenstein’s ankle.<\/p>\n

“That’s kind of par for the course in terms of a physical game like that,” McVay said.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"WOODLAND HILLS, Calif. \u2013 Head coach Sean McVay gave some injury updates on Monday following the Rams’ season…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":352833,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2079],"tags":[7391,7,13054,25023,1014,58,63147,2444,2611,6,424,20581],"class_list":{"0":"post-352832","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-los-angeles-rams","8":"tag-colby-parkinson","9":"tag-football","10":"tag-injury-update","11":"tag-kevin-dotson","12":"tag-los-angeles","13":"tag-los-angeles-rams","14":"tag-los-angeles-rams-at-tennessee-titans-2025-reg-2","15":"tag-losangeles","16":"tag-losangelesrams","17":"tag-nfl","18":"tag-rams","19":"tag-steve-avila"},"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/channels.im\/@nfl\/115171410483930441","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/352832","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=352832"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/352832\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/352833"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=352832"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=352832"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=352832"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
