Rams Cornerback Jaylen Watson Out for Season
8 sourcesUpdated Nov 5, 20261 min read
Rams cornerback Jaylen Watson will undergo season-ending surgery on his injured shoulder after aggravating it during Sunday’s win over the Chargers. Watson recorded one interception and nine pass breakups in seven games, and coach Sean McVay said the team will miss his production, toughness and leadership. Josh Wallace and Emmanuel Forbes Jr. are expected to help replace him at cornerback; the Rams also opened the practice window for defensive end Myles Garrett as he works back from knee surgery.
