Ronnie Rivers injury opens the door for two preseason stars

Los Angeles Rams running back and special-teamer Ronnie Rivers will miss at least four weeks after suffering a calf injury against the Giants. Head coach Sean McVay announced that Rivers will be placed on injured reserve with an expected timeline of four to six weeks.

Rivers' absence opens a roster opportunity for running backs Dean Connors or Jordan Waters to make their NFL debut against the Broncos. McVay stated the decision will depend on which player can offer more value on special teams.
