Los Angeles Rams' defensive end Myles Garrett did not participate in Tuesday's joint practice against the Dallas Cowboys, with head coach Sean McVay citing precautionary measures due to swelling in his knee. Garrett, acquired this offseason from the Cleveland Browns, is reported to be at about 85% health. McVay indicated there were no setbacks, and previous lower-body soreness had already caused Garrett to miss some practices earlier in training camp. Garrett's performance has been solid so far, with a pick-six in a recent session. The Rams aim to monitor his condition closely before the preseason opener.
