Oct 21 (Field Level Media) – The Los Angeles Rams’ defensive line took another hit on ​Wednesday with Kobie Turner landing on ‌injured reserve.

The fourth-year defensive end and team captain sustained a groin injury in Sunday’s 18-16 home loss to the Arizona Cardinals.

Turner, 27, ‌will ​miss at least the ⁠next four games and ⁠will be eligible to return following the Rams’ Week 11 bye.

Held without a sack through six starts this season, ​Turner has tallied 22 tackles and just one quarterback hit.

The 2023 third-round ⁠pick has 24 sacks, ⁠189 tackles, one interception and ​two fumble recoveries in 57 games (43 starts).

The Rams (2-4) ​lost nose tackle Poona Ford for ‌the season with a ruptured triceps in Sunday’s loss. Defensive end Myles Garrett has not played since the season opener ⁠due to a knee injury, and defensive tackle Aaron Donald has missed two games and ⁠has zero ‌sacks through four games in ⁠his return from retirement.

Los Angeles ​also ‌signed nose tackle Jalen Hunt ​to the ⁠practice squad and signed outside linebacker Darryl Peterson III from the practice squad to the active roster ahead of Sunday’s road game against the Las Vegas Raiders (3-3).
