It’s looking more and more like the Los Angeles Rams won’t have Gerald Everett on Sunday against the Dallas Cowboys. He’s missed the last two games with a knee injury and hasn’t even begun practicing, which is obviously bad news for his chances of playing in Week 15.
To make matters worse, Everett has come down with a stomach bug and was sent home early from practice on Thursday.
“Gerald will be out [of practice]. He actually was sick today, as well, so sent him home with a stomach virus,” Sean McVay said before practice.
Tyler Higbee has been a stud in Everett’s absence, going over 100 yards receiving and catching seven passes in each of the last two games. Everett is a key contributor and is difficult to bring down in the open field, but the Rams have managed without him.
Rob Havenstein is moving closer to returning to the field, practicing once again on Thursday – his second straight day as a full participant. McVay still didn’t clarify whether Havenstein will slide back in as the starting right tackle or if that job will remain Bobby Evans’.
Nsimba Webster was a full participant, too, which is a good sign for his availability.
