The Los Angeles Rams are reportedly feeling pretty good about when superstar pass-rusher Myles Garrett is gonna be back on the field. Jonathan Jones of The Athletic spilled the beans: the Rams are super hopeful Garrett can return from his knee injury against the Arizona Cardinals on October 18. That’s the absolute earliest he can come off injured reserve, and man, that’d be huge for their D-line.
The Cardinals Game Could Be the Day
According to Jones, that October 18 game against the Cardinals is the date circled on the calendar. Imagine, Garrett, back in action, disrupting plays and making quarterbacks miserable. The team’s gotta be itching to get him out there, especially with how much of a game-wrecker he is. This isn’t just wishful thinking, either. This is the earliest they *can* get him back, and they’re pushing for it.
No Six-Week Nightmare for Garrett
Remember all that noise about Garrett potentially missing six weeks? Yeah, a source told Jones those rumors were the “worst-case scenario,” and it looks like the Rams aren’t even thinking that way. Another team source expressed real belief that Garrett will be back by October 25 when they face the Las Vegas Raiders. So, whether it’s the 18th or the 25th, it’s definitely not the doomsday six-week timeline everyone was whispering about. This is a massive sigh of relief for Rams fans.
So, get ready, Rams faithful. Your superstar pass-rusher is on track for an early return, potentially as soon as October 18. Keep an eye on that game against the Arizona Cardinals, or maybe the following week against the Las Vegas Raiders. Either way, it seems Garrett’s return is closer than many might have feared.
