Rams Primed for Playoffs: Key Players Return
3 Jan
Summary
- Tight end Tyler Higbee is on track to return for Sunday's game.
- Safety Quentin Lake is cleared to play in the playoffs.
- Star receiver Davante Adams may also return for the playoffs.
The Los Angeles Rams are nearing full strength as they prepare for the postseason, with several key players on track to return. Tight end Tyler Higbee is expected to play in the season finale against the Arizona Cardinals on Sunday. Safety Quentin Lake has also been cleared and will be available for the playoffs, bolstering the team's defense. Star receiver Davante Adams, who has been sidelined with a hamstring injury, is also a possibility for playoff games.
The Rams, despite recent losses, are focused on getting healthy at the right time. "We're getting healthy at the right time," coach Sean McVay stated. The team, currently seeded sixth in the NFC, could potentially climb to fifth with a win and a 49ers loss. While some starters remain questionable due to injuries, McVay confirmed that starters would play against the Cardinals, though their playing time is yet to be determined.
Higbee, sidelined since mid-November with an injury, is eager to contribute his physicality and energy. Lake, recently awarded a three-year contract extension, brings leadership and talent back to the field after an elbow injury. Adams continues to lead the NFL in touchdown catches despite his recent absence, and his potential return further strengthens the Rams' offensive capabilities for their upcoming playoff run.
