Rams' Kendrick Suffers Confirmed Torn ACL

Los Angeles Rams cornerback Derion Kendrick has suffered a torn ACL during the team's first training camp practice, confirmed by head coach Sean McVay. Kendrick, drafted in the sixth round in 2022, was projected to start this season and had shown significant progress in his first two years. This injury is a significant blow to the Rams' secondary, already facing challenges. Kendrick will undergo surgery and is expected to miss the entire 2024 season, with hopes to return in 2025. The Rams may need to explore free agency options to fill the gap left by Kendrick's absence.
