Rams Morning Report: Sean McVay Delivers Encouraging Updates
Los Angeles Feeling Recharged After Weekend Break
WOODLAND HILLS, Calif. – After a well-earned weekend off, the Los Angeles Rams are back in action, preparing for their upcoming clash with the Baltimore Ravens. Head coach Sean McVay provided several key team updates during his Monday press conference, while league-wide news continued to unfold.
Injury Updates: Optimism and Setbacks
McVay confirmed that tight end Colby Parkinson is in concussion protocol following a head injury sustained during a red zone play. However, progress looks promising, and the team expects him to be available soon.
Linebacker Omar Speights is unlikely to play this week due to a high ankle sprain. Meanwhile, Tyler Higbee (hip) and Rob Havenstein (ankle) are both making strides in their recovery, with updates expected Wednesday.
McVay also mentioned that offensive lineman Steve Avila should be ready to go, provided he practices at the level McVay knows he’s capable of.
Team Mindset Heading Into the Week
Reflecting on the team’s energy heading into practice, McVay emphasized the importance of clear communication and focus:
“The vibe, the energy, the intentionality—those are the things you can feel. We’ve got the right kind of people here. They’re mentally tough and resilient.”
He acknowledged the team’s recent disappointments but expressed confidence in their response:
“It’s okay to be disappointed, but the key is learning from it and using it to fuel us. I’m excited to see how we respond, and I know we’ll bring the right mindset.”
