Rams' Jarquez Hunter: Healthy inactive for London game
Rotowire
Hunter (coach's decision) is a healthy inactive for Sunday's game against the Jaguars in London.
After being inactive for the Rams' season-opening win over the Texans, Hunter had suited up for each of Los Angeles' subsequent five games, but the rookie running back had been used exclusively on special teams. At least for one week, Hunter appears to have lost out on that meager role, as practice-squad call-up Ronnie Rivers will be active as depth behind Kyren Williams and Blake Corum in addition to taking on Hunter's responsibilities on special teams.

Rams' Jarquez Hunter: Makes debut on special teams
Rotowire
Hunter logged six snaps on special teams during Sunday's 33-19 win against the Titans.
Hunter made his regular-season debut Sunday after being a healthy scratch in Week 1, but he never got an opportunity to take the field on offense. Kyren Williams (17-66-0) and Blake Corum (5-44-1) handled the entire rushing load for the Rams, and given head coach Sean McVay's proclivity to feed Williams the vast majority of touches at running back over the past few seasons, Hunter will likely find it hard to make an impact this year barring an injury ahead of him on the depth chart.
Hunter (coach's decision) is inactive for Sunday's game against the Texans, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.
Hunter is a healthy scratch Sunday, and the rookie fourth-rounder's next opportunity to make his NFL regular-season debut is Week 2 against the Titans on Sunday, Sept. 14. Cody Schrader and Blake Corum will serve as the Rams' backup running backs behind Kyren Williams.
Rams' Jarquez Hunter: Little running room Saturday
Rotowire
Hunter carried the ball seven times for 14 yards in Saturday's 19-17 preseason loss to the Browns.
The 2025 fourth-round pick got the start due to both Kyren Williams and Blake Corum being held out of the Rams' exhibition finale, and Hunter worked the team's first three drives before handing the backfield over to Cody Schrader. Hunter's role as the No. 3 RB seems secure, but the rookie is unlikely to see a lot of action in the regular season barring injuries ahead of him -- Corum, a third-round pick last year, saw only 65 touches over 17 games in his first NFL campaign.
