Jaylen Watson Avoids IR After Dislocating Shoulder in Week 3

Los Angeles Rams cornerback Jaylen Watson suffered a dislocated right shoulder during Sunday's loss to the Denver Broncos. While head coach Sean McVay announced Watson will miss multiple games—including a Week 4 matchup against Philadelphia—the Rams do not plan to place him on injured reserve, allowing him to return sooner. Research suggests a nonsurgical recovery takes 4 to 6 weeks, and teammate Trent McDuffie confirmed Watson is expected back this season.
