The injury bug during preseason finally caught up with the Los Angeles Rams during Saturday’s game against the Dallas Cowboys after second-year linebacker Micah Kiser suffered a left pectoral injury that will keep him out indefinitely.
All of a sudden, the high level of excitement surrounding Kiser working his way into a starting role on defense will be delayed, as this is the last thing the Rams want to be dealing with since September is right around the corner.
While Sean McVay made the easy decision to rest most of the starters for Los Angeles against Dallas, Kiser was one of the few exceptions since the Rams head coach wanted to give the former Virginia star some reps to make sure he was in fact capable of being a starter.
