According to head coach Sean McVay, Los Angeles Rams cornerback Derion Kendrick has suffered a torn ACL during practice Wednesday. The expectation is he will miss the 2024 season and get surgery in the next couple weeks.

“Unfortunately, Derion Kendrick did get his ACL yesterday,” Rams head coach Sean McVay saiddThursday. “I’m really proud of the way that he’s worked. He’s continued to really mature in a lot of different ways and if there’s one thing you know about this guy, he can handle setbacks. He’ll have a lot of support from his teammates and coaches, and he’ll attack the rehab.”

The 23 year old will look to recover and comeback stronger in 2025.
