The Los Angeles Rams will be without Myles Garrett for at least four weeks following news of an upcoming knee procedure. The pass rusher is scheduled to undergo arthroscopic surgery to address lingering lower-leg pain. Garrett, acquired by the Rams from the Cleveland Browns during the offseason, appeared in the team's season opener on Thursday but showed signs of physical limitations during the game. The organization intends to move the defensive standout to the injured reserve list as he begins his recovery. Team officials anticipate he will return to the lineup after the mandatory four-week absence. This development leaves the Rams' defense shorthanded as they adjust their roster following the opener.
