Puka Nacua, Myles Garrett remain out of practice for Rams

The Rams are continuing to give two of their star players time to heal.

Per Sarah Barshop of ESPN, receiver Puka Nacua and edge rusher Myles Garrett are not practicing on Monday.

Nacua is dealing with a core muscle injury suffered during last week’s joint practice with the Cowboys.

Garrett has been sidelined by swelling in his knee.

The Rams will host the Saints for a preseason matchup on Saturday afternoon. Neither Nacua nor Garrett were expected to play even without being injured, as Los Angeles has not traditionally played starters in the preseason under head coach Sean McVay.
