Los Angeles Rams starting cornerback Jaylen Watson will miss multiple games after dislocating his right shoulder during Sunday night's loss to the Denver Broncos. Although he won't be placed on injured reserve, which would require a minimum of four-game absence, there is no specific return date yet. Fellow player Trent McDuffie plans to support Watson during rehabilitation and believes he will recover this season. The Rams also face uncertainty with tight end Colby Parkinson due to a shoulder injury and cornerback Terrance Ferguson who is doubtful because of an ankle injury for their upcoming game against the Philadelphia Eagles.

Story summary
Jaylen Watson, a key cornerback for the Los Angeles Rams, suffered a dislocated right shoulder during Sunday's game against the Denver Broncos at Empower Field at Mile High. The injury occurred just before halftime, putting an immediate strain on the rebuilt secondary that had been performing well in the first half. Although initial reports were concerning, coach Sean McVay announced Monday that Watson will miss multiple games but does not require placement on injured reserve. This means he could potentially return within four to six weeks if his shoulder heals without surgery. The injury compounds issues for the Rams, who are also dealing with absent tight ends Terrance Ferguson and Colby Parkinson, along with wide receiver Puka Nacua's ongoing absence due to hip and groin injuries.
