Sean McVay gives positive injury updates on Kam Curl, Nate Landman and Davis Allen; Omar Speights status unclear
McVay called the Curl, Landman and Allen updates “positive” and left Speights’ status more open; the remarks matter as the Rams absorb the loss of Myles Garrett and manage depth for Week 2.
In this brief: 4 sections 2 min read
McVay said Curl sustained an ankle injury but was able to return to the game.
McVay characterized the injury as "some ankle soreness."
McVay said Curl "is good."
McVay noted Landman "got his shoulder and his thumb" but still expects him to be ready for Monday Night Football.
The comment implies Landman remains in the Rams' inside linebacker plans for Week 2.
Depth behind him will still be monitored given recent turnover and Garrett's absence.
Allen appeared to suffer a head injury during the game but returned to play.
McVay said Allen returned and was not placed in concussion protocol.
That maintains depth at tight end for upcoming game plans.
Speights sustained a hip pointer and has swelling, per McVay.
McVay said Speights "is making positive gains right now" but would not say one way or another about his status for the next game.
Rams will monitor his recovery ahead of the Week 2 decision.
