Steve Avila
OG - Los Angeles Rams - IR
Week 9 Outlook
Availability
Steve Avila underwent surgery on his knee and is shooting for a return sometime in November.
Fantasy Impact
Avila was recently placed on injured reserve because of a knee issue, and he just underwent successful surgery to repair it. He is going to be sidelined for a while and is shooting for a return in November. His extended absence is less than ideal for players like Matthew Stafford and Kyren Williams, who are directly affected by Los Angeles' lack of depth on the offensive line.
Steve Avila (knee) is being placed on Los Angeles' injured reserve.
Fantasy Impact
Avila will be out for at least the next four weeks while he recovers from a knee injury. It's not a season-ending issue for him, but the team expects him to miss a significant amount of time while he recovers. Joe Noteboom (ankle) is also being placed on IR, so the Rams will be working with a weakened offensive line for the foreseeable future.
The Los Angeles Rams are getting testing done on iOL Steve Avila's knee, conducting an MRI for a feared MCL sprain suffered on Sunday night.
Fantasy Impact
Avila, a second-year lineman out of TCU, started all 17 games for the Rams in 2023 as a rookie, posting a solid 61.1 offensive grade per PFF as a left guard. Avila left Sunday night's game with his injury and could be facing 1-2 months away if the sprain is confirmed. Logan Bruss, a third-year player who has not yet played an NFL offensive snap, is a likely candidate to take on the role.
