<p>The<strong> <a href="https://bolavip.com/en/topic/los-angeles-rams">Los Angeles Rams</a></strong> have shown significant improvement in the first six weeks of the season compared to the previous year, achieving a 3-3 record despite facing formidable opponents. Nevertheless, injuries have taken a toll on their offense, with star receiver<strong> Cooper Kupp</strong> sidelined for the first four games and another key contributor lost due to injury.</p>



<p>Los Angeles confirmed that they placed<strong> Kyren Williams</strong> on injured reserve following an ankle injury he sustained against the <strong>Arizona Cardinals</strong>. The running back is expected to miss at least four games and will be eligible to make his return in week 12, coincidentally against the Cardinals.</p>



<p>Adding to their running back woes, the Rams also had to send backup running back<strong> Ronnie Rivers</strong> to injured reserve after he injured his knee in the same game. To address the absence of Williams and Rivers, the Rams took a series of measures as they signed a couple of players to add depth.</p>



<h2>Kyren Williams’ Substitutes</h2>



<p>The Rams made significant changes to bolster their running back lineup first elevating<strong> Royce Freeman</strong> to the active roster. Then they inked a deal with a player the team knows well like<strong> Darrell Henderson Jr</strong>., who secured his place on the practice squad.</p>

<p>Additionally, the Rams acquired running back<strong> Myles Gaskin</strong> from the<strong> Minnesota Vikings</strong>‘ practice squad and added him to their active roster. In their roster, they also have rookie sixth-rounder Zach Evans. However, replacing Williams won’t be a simple task, as he has been exceptionally effective.</p>
