How our call moved this week
74% LIKELY → 74% LIKELY
Every call we wrote for him this week, earliest first, as written.
Keagen Trost is listed at right tackle for LA. He has a hamstring injury. This week he practised in full every day the report covers. His team has not listed him on the final report. We called him PLAY in week 6 and he did not play.
The decisive fact is that Trost is still on injured reserve and has only just had his 21-day practice window opened, so he cannot play unless the club takes the separate step of activating him — 'Trost is not yet activated from injured reserve, but this move means that the team has 21 days to either activate him or lose him' (P1). McVay's optimism that he 'could be available as soon as Sunday' (P1) is a coach-level signal toward playing, but it is hedged and is paired with a brand-new hamstring that put him on the report for the first time on Thursday, albeit as a full participant (P2). A full practice on the practice axis does not equal activation on the game-status axis, so a SIT call at roughly one-in-three is consistent with what is written; I would not call the call wrong, only thinly evidenced. It would need to know: Whether the Rams formally activated Trost from injured reserve to the 53-man roster before the 18 Oct game (transaction wire, Sat 17 Oct); Rams' final injury report / game designation for Trost dated Fri 16 or Sat 17 Oct (Out/Doubtful/Questionable/none); Sean McVay's Friday 16 Oct news conference remarks on Trost's hamstring and on whether he will be activated this week; Status of the Rams' starting tackles (Alaric Jackson, Rob Havenstein) for 18 Oct, which governs whether a just-activated rookie tackle is needed
