The Los Angeles Rams suffered another potential setback along the offensive line as Steve Avila entered Sunday’s matchup against the Washington Commanders dealing with a hamstring injury. Avila appeared to be trending in the right direction throughout the week, initially participating in a limited practice Wednesday before upgrading to full participation Thursday and Friday. His progress allowed him to avoid a game designation on the final injury report, giving the Rams optimism that their starting left guard would be available without limitations.
However, those concerns resurfaced Sunday. Avila exited during the second quarter after appearing to aggravate his hamstring while blocking on a Kyren Williams rushing attempt.
