Finally, the Los Angeles Rams are getting some good news on the injury front. Sean McVay told reporters on Monday that the team plans to open the practice window for Darious Williams and Larrell Murchison this week.
Both players are currently on IR and eligible to return on Sunday against the Packers, but they’ll need to be activated first. By opening their practice windows, the Rams will then have 21 days to decide whether to activate them to the 53-man roster or leave them on IR for the rest of the season.
Williams’ impending return is big for the Rams’ secondary, which has struggled in his absence. He’s been sidelined since the second day of training camp when he suffered a hamstring injury and was placed on IR just before the start of the season, forcing him to miss the first four games.

Upon his return, the Rams will then have Tre’Davious White, Cobie Durant and Williams as potential starting cornerbacks. Quentin Lake has been manning the slot all season so the Rams will need to figure out how to get all four defensive backs on the field.
