Rob Havenstein Latest News
Could play in Week 12
Head coach Sean McVay told reporters Monday that Havenstein (ankle) is "trending in the right direction" to possibly return against the Eagles in Week 12, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports. Havenstein has missed each of the Rams' last two games after sustaining an ankle injury in the team's Week 9 win over the Seahawks. However, McVay's comments Monday suggest he's nearing a return to the field. Havenstein's practice participation throughout the week will likely provide the best indication of whether he can return when the Rams host the Eagles in Week 12.
Missing another week
Head coach Sean McVay told reporters Friday that Havenstein (ankle) won't play in Sunday's matchup against the Patriots, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports. Havenstein didn't practice Wednesday or Thursday after missing the Rams' Week 10 loss to the Dolphins due to an ankle injury, so it's no surprise that he'll be sidelined for the second consecutive game Sunday. With Joe Noteboom (ankle) doubtful for Week 11's matchup, Warren McClendon will likely serve as the Rams' top right tackle.
Won't play in Week 10
Head coach Sean McVay told reporters Monday that Havenstein (ankle) will be sidelined for the Rams' Week 10 matchup against the Dolphins, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports. The Wisconsin product sustained an ankle injury in the Rams' Week 9 win over the Seahawks, and McVay's decision to already rule Havenstein out for Week 10 suggests the issue could be serious. Expect Warren McClendon to serve as the Rams' top right tackle until Havenstein can return to the field.
Questionable to return Sunday
Havenstein (ankle) is questionable to return to Sunday's contest against the Seahawks, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports. Havenstein suffered an ankle injury in the second half and his status for the rest of the game is now up in the air. In his absence, Warren McClendon will likely take over at right tackle.
Cleared to play Week 2
Havenstein (ankle) doesn't carry an injury designation into Sunday's game against the Cardinals and is expected to play, Gary Klein of the Los Angeles Times reports. It will be Havenstein's season debut after he missed Week 1 versus Detroit. His return is huge for a Rams offensive line that lost interior lineman Steve Avila to a sprained MCL in the season opener and is still without starting LT Alaric Jackson, who is serving the final game of his two-game suspension this week.
Unavailable Sunday
Havenstein (ankle) will be inactive for Sunday's matchup against the Lions, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports. Havenstein has been nursing an ankle injury and he'll ultimately be forced to miss the opener against Detroit. Joe Noteboom will likely take over at starting right tackle versus the Lions.
Officially questionable Sunday
Havenstein (ankle) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's matchup with the Lions, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports. Havenstein was expected to be listed as questionable for the Rams' Week 1 contest, and Friday's injury report confirmed it. If the nine-year veteran is unable to suit up Sunday, Warren McClendon is expected to step in at right tackle.
Limited Friday
Havenstein (ankle) will be a limited participant in Friday's practice, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports. Head coach Sean McVay was asked about Havenstein's Week 1 availability Friday, to which he responded that the Rams will "see how today goes." Havenstein will likely be listed as questionable for Sunday's contest against the Lions, and Warren McClendon is expected to start at right tackle if Havenstein is unable to play.
Practices Monday
Havenstein (ankle) was a limited participant in the Rams' practice Monday, Stu Jackson of the Rams' official site reports. Havenstein is making progress towards working his way back from an ankle injury suffered last month but is still not fully healthy. The 32-year-old's status for Sunday's game versus the Lions is still up in the air, and if he ends up being unable to play, Warren McClendon will likely start at right tackle. This would leave the team without both startinting tackles as Alaric Jackson is suspended for the first two games of the season.
