The Los Angeles Rams had no players with injury designations coming into today’s game against the New York Jets, a rarity for a team this late in the season. The good news is they won’t be missing anyone due to injury, but they did have some decisions to make when it comes to their game-day roster.
They announced their six inactives for Week 16 and all of them are healthy scratches. That includes Emmanuel Forbes Jr., who was active last week but didn’t play any snaps. Warren McClendon Jr. is also a healthy scratch again with the Rams having plenty of depth up front.
Tyler Higbee is officially active against the Jets, meaning the Rams will have all four of their tight ends available. It remains to be seen how they’ll deploy Higbee, Colby Parkinson, Hunter Long and Davis Allen.
Rams inactives: Stetson Bennett, Tyler Johnson, Cody Schrader, Emmanuel Forbes, Dylan McMahon, Warren McClendon Jr.
So Rams keep all four tight ends active in Tyler Higbee’s debut.

For the Jets, they’ll be missing Quinnen Williams, their star defensive tackle and one of the best defenders in football. He’s out with a hamstring injury, which he suffered last week. He was considered a true game-time decision but he officially will not play.
Quinnen Williams is OUT today. Jets D-Line was already thin with him, especially at DT, so not ideal.
Malachi Corley is active.
Other inactives:
CB Michael Carter II
DB Jarrick Bernard-Converse
OL Jake Hanson
S Jaylin Simpson
OL Xavier Newman— Zack Rosenblatt (@ZackBlatt) December 22, 2024
