Six-week knee recovery could keep Rams' Myles Garrett out until Week 8

The Rams placed Myles Garrett on injured reserve after Week 1's loss to the 49ers, ruling him out for at least four games. Ian Rapoport says his recovery from knee surgery is expected to take roughly six weeks, pointing to a likely Week 8 return.

Garrett is eligible to return after Week 5, but a Week 6 comeback is considered unlikely. A Week 7 return against the Las Vegas Raiders remains possible if his recovery goes well; the Rams play the Chargers in Week 8.
