The Los Angeles Rams will be without their top running back on Sunday against the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Per ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Kyren Williams is being placed on injured reserve due to his ankle injury. Because of that, he’ll have to miss the team’s next four games.
Rams are placing RB Kyren Williams on injured reserve today due to his ankle injury, sidelining him at least four games, per sources. Williams now will be eligible to return in Week 12 at Arizona.

Williams suffered the ankle injury last Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals. He finished the game with 20 carries for 158 yards and a touchdown.
So far this season, Williams has 97 carries for 456 yards and six touchdowns.
With him out, the Rams will turn to Zach Evans and Royce Freeman to get the bulk of the carries. Myles Gaskin will also likely get some carries.
The Rams head into this game with a 3-3 record, while the Steelers are coming off their bye week at 3-2.
Kickoff is set for 4:05 p.m. ET and it’ll be regionally televised by Fox.
