The Los Angeles Rams suffered a pair of injuries in Sunday’s win against Washington, both on the defensive side of the ball. Ogbonnia Okoronkwo injured his elbow and was forced to leave the game in the third quarter, but he was unable to return.
Jordan Fuller also injured his shoulder late in the game when he hit a receiver to jar the ball loose. The game was over so he didn’t return, but there was concern that he re-injured the shoulder that caused him to miss one game.
On Monday, Sean McVay shared an update on both players, though he’ll have more clarity on them as the week progresses. McVay confirmed that Fuller’s injury was the same shoulder that he hurt in Week 3, and added that Okoronkwo strained his elbow.
Injury updates from Rams HC Sean McVay:
S Jordan Fuller – continuing to evaluate his shoulder, more clarity Wednesday.
LB Obo Okoronkwo – strained elbow, more clarity Wednesday.
Both will not practice Wednesday.

Fortunately, it sounds like Micah Kiser is getting ready to return from his groin injury, which caused him to miss Sunday’s game against Washington.
Kiser will be limited on Wednesday but McVay is hopeful he’ll be able to play against the 49ers this weekend.
