One of the highlights by the defense today was a Kam Curl pick-six. Sean McVay on Curl: "Obviously, a lot's been made about some of the new acquisitions with Trent (McDuffie), with Jaylen (Watson) and with Myles (Garrett) on defense, but re-signing Kam Curl was a huge deal for us as well."

Per Sean McVay, TE Davis Allen is dealing with a quad injury. Since it's a soft tissue injury, McVay said they will give Allen "some time" before he returns to practice. McVay said they don't want to rush Allen back. "Davis is going to be a big part of what we do," McVay said.

Another one just now: A few plays earlier, great play by Jaylen Watson breaking up a Stafford deep ball for Davante Adams. Just now: Stafford threads a deep TD pass in the face of a blitz to Adams with Watson in coverage. Late hands by Adams to make the grab at the last second.

Play that just shows how great the WR-CB battles in camp have been: Matthew Stafford launches a pass deep downfield over the middle to Puka Nacua, but right after Nacua makes the catch, McDuffie is right there to knock the ball out to cause the incompletion.

Sean McVay doesn't expect an update on Aaron Donald until the team returns to its Woodland Hills practice facility. However, "things are going in the right direction, and if there's an arrow, it's trending upwards," McVay said. www.therams.com/news/rams-aa...

Today was the most comfortable rookie QB Ty Simpson has looked so far. Mechanically, his release looked quicker. Best throw deep completion to TE Terrance Ferguson. Sean McVay on where he's seen improvement in Simpson between when he arrived to where he's at now (@nateatkins.bsky.social question)

Rams HC Sean McVay said he doesn’t expect there to be an update on Aaron Donald until the team returns to Woodland Hills. However, McVay said that “things are going in the right direction,” and if there’s an arrow, “it’s trending upwards.”

When Davante Adams first joined the Rams last year, he described the camaraderie amongst teammates as a college-like atmosphere. I asked Myles Garrett today if he sees it the same way:

Myles Garrett was asked how long it takes to feel like an L.A. Ram (having been in one place for so long): "I don't know, I had a pretty good reception from the fans, and the team continued to rally around me and receive me with open arms. So it's starting to feel like home rather quickly."

Sean McVay clarified today that Justin Dedich’s hand injury had nothing to do with fireworks. It was a “true accident”where something fell on Dedich’s hand. “Expecting him to be back in a little bit of time,” McVay said.

Sean McVay said today that OL Justin Dedich, who was previously declared Non-Football Injury, “had a hand accident around the Fourth of July, and so that's kind of what's keeping him out for now.”

Sean McVay said he has "had conversations" with Aaron Donald, but also said there is "no new news on the front of any imminent decision on whether he's going to play or not." McVay: "We've kept in contact. He's feeling good. His training is going really well.”
