Los Angeles Rams injury report: Latest on Matthew Stafford, Puka Nacua for Week 11 vs Seahawks

The Los Angeles Rams will play their first game in SoFi Stadium since Week 7 on Sunday when they take on the Seattle Seahawks in Week 11.

The Rams, who had a week off for their bye, will be aiming to win only their fourth game of the year on Sunday. Going into this game, the Los Angeles team will be buoyed from their 30-13 victory over the Seahawks in the first week and hoping to use that momentum to defeat Seattle for the second time this campaign.

More significantly, if the Rams are to have any chance of qualifying for the postseason, they must begin to grind out victories right away.

In the hopes of winning just their fourth game of the season going into Week 11, let's examine some of the Rams' injury concerns.

Los Angeles Rams Week 11 injury report

Following a bye week during which several players were rested, the Los Angeles Rams have released their most recent injury report. Eight Rams players were listed on Wednesday's injury report, ahead of their Week 11 game against the Seattle Seahawks.

On Sunday, three important players who were absent from the Rams' Week 9 matchup against the Green Bay Packers, are anticipated to participate again. Both linebacker Ernest Jones and quarterback Matthew Stafford are anticipated to be available after being listed as full participants in the initial injury report on Wednesday. Rob Havenstein, an offensive tackle, was limited in Wednesday's practice, but Sean McVay, the head coach, anticipates the 31-year-old being ready for action on Sunday.

Wide receiver Puka Nacua (knee), defensive end Larrell Murchison (knee), and cornerback Cobie Durant (shoulder) were among the other Rams players limited in practice on Wednesday.

Although no player has been declared ineligible for the Rams as of yet, we won't know who won't be available on Sunday until the end of the week.

Matthew Stafford's injury update

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford was able to take last week off to fully recover from a right thumb UCL sprain. Sean McVay informed interviewers on Monday that he envisions his starting quarterback to play this week against the Seattle Seahawks despite the veteran quarterback missing his team's most recent loss (20-3), to the Green Bay Packers in Week 9.

The former Detroit Lions quarterback participated fully in practice on Wednesday despite having a soft brace on his right hand. As he practiced throwing passes in anticipation of Sunday's home game at SoFi Stadium, he appeared unhindered.

Stafford remarked:

"It felt good to go back out there and get my feet wet again, both literally and figuratively."

Prior to suffering an injury on October 29 during a 43-20 loss to the Dallas Cowboys, the 35-year-old signal caller had recorded eight touchdown passes and seven interceptions this season.

Puka Nacua's injury update

The Los Angeles Rams are anticipated to be well-rested for their Week 11 matchup against the Seattle Seahawks, given they did not play last week. On Wednesday, though, rookie wideout Puka Nacua was limited in practice.

Thankfully, Sean McVay stated that Nacua's status on the report from Wednesday is simply a safety precaution and is related to a knee ailment. This suggests that later this week, the receiver will likely resume full participation and be prepared to play against the Seahawks.
