Myles Garrett Ready for Week 1 vs 49ers

Myles Garrett is clear for the Rams' Week 1 opener against the 49ers in Melbourne. The final injury report lists Aaron Donald as the only Los Angeles player ruled out. Garrett, listed with a knee, was a full participant Wednesday and Thursday with no game designation, and Sean McVay already said he would be ready to go, per the Rams' official report.

Kickoff is set for about 5:35 p.m. PT Thursday at the Melbourne Cricket Ground, streaming on Netflix. This is the gameday stamp, not the earlier debut chatter. Garrett practices full, no tag, McVay green light.

Donald alone on the Out list

Donald carries an NIR-Rest designation and was ruled out before the Rams left Los Angeles, which matches what we already covered when Donald was ruled out for Week 1 in Australia. Everyone else on the Rams' report was estimated full Thursday, including Grant Stuard (hamstring), Jaylen Watson (toe), Tyler Higbee, Alaric Jackson, and Byron Young (all NIR-Rest earlier in the week).

Garrett's path was the one to watch. He was a DNP Tuesday, then full Wednesday and Thursday. No questionable. No doubtful. Just a blank game-status column next to the newest Ram edge rusher. That is the cleanest possible final IR for a player who arrived with a knee question mark.

49ers side still has names without tags

San Francisco's report is messier but not empty of good news for their stars. Nick Bosa (knee) and George Kittle (Achilles) carry no designations either, which lines up with the earlier notes when Kittle was set to play. Defensive tackle Alfred Collins (knee) is Out. James Thompson (hamstring) is Questionable. Several other 49ers were limited midweek and full by Thursday.

For Rams fans who followed the Garrett Week 1 debut buildup, Thursday's report is the confirmation step. The edge duo of Garrett and Young is intact. Donald sits. Melbourne gets a real NFL opener with Netflix cameras and a late afternoon Pacific start. Fantasy and betting boards should treat Garrett as active unless something flips at walk-through. The sourced story is simple: full practices, no designation, McVay says ready, and Donald is the only Ram ruled out.

Melbourne already had the travel story and the Netflix packaging. What Thursday's report settles is the defensive front for Los Angeles. Garrett is not managing a snap count on paper. He is unmarked. Donald is the planned absence. That is a different Week 1 look than the midweek speculation that still had Garrett's knee as a live question. Fans who wanted the debut night to be a real edge rush night got their answer from the practice designations, not from a press-conference tease.
