A knee injury threatens to keep linebacker Leonard Floyd out of the Los Angeles Rams’ Week 2 tilt against the Atlanta Falcons on Sunday, and the team has devised a rotation of replacements to fill the void in his absence. Head coach Sean McVay revealed his plan to deal with the loss of the defensive stalwart on Friday in Los Angeles’ media availability session, telling reporters that he intends to give three players more snaps if Floyd cannot play.
“We’re working through that right now,” He explained when asked about possible contingencies. “Obviously Justin Hollins and Terrell Lewis will get the bulk of the workload. Keir Thomas is a guy that’s going to be ready. He did a great job of being able to earn a spot based on how he’s played throughout training camp. What that other position looks like if we do bring up a fourth, if Flo can’t go, we’re kind of working through that right now.”
