The Los Angeles Rams just shut down Matthew Stafford for the rest of the season and now they are doing the same for an offensive lineman. With the Rams preparing to face the Las Vegas Raiders on Thursday night, Sean McVay shared Wednesday that David Edwards isn’t expected to play again this season.

Edwards is on the final day of his 21-day window to be activated from injured reserve after the Rams designated him to return on November 16th. The fourth-year guard has been limited to four games this season after suffering multiple concussions.
Considering that Edwards has been in the concussion protocol twice and has had a long stint on injured reserve, the Rams are taking a cautious approach. Los Angeles has endured a bevy of injuries on the offensive line this season and with Edwards slated to miss the final five games of the season, veteran Matt Skura is expected to continue starting at left guard.
