From the episode

And then Hayden, it wasn't one of those, oh, he gets injured, lays on the field, trainers. And so he misses time. So it's almost, that makes me even more concerned that this is something that the Rams realize that if they don't get it right right now, it's going to linger more and more.

STACKED’s take

Negative signalInjury

Puka's non-progressing groin/hip rehab and soreness designation raise sports hernia concerns.

Hayden very nervous about Puka's groin/hip injury; missed camp with SOA (hip, groin), looked good in Week 1 but didn't get injured on field—trainers didn't have to attend to him, suggesting lingering issue; Sean McVay said he's not progressing in rehabilitation, which is concerning; Rams haven't targeted exact body part, listing both groin and hip; Hayden doesn't like soreness designation and hopes it's not sports hernia; not on injured reserve but may be out multiple weeks; McVay notoriously too optimistic with injuries; Hayden compares concern level to Christian McCaffrey's training camp issue from couple seasons ago.
