What happened: The Rams announced their inactive list for Week 4 against Philadelphia. Defensive end Aaron Donald, tight end Colby Parkinson, and cornerback Jaylen Watson are officially ruled out. Ty Simpson will serve as the emergency third quarterback.

Why it matters: Donald is unavailable following a minor back injury reported Friday. The defensive absence coincides with Philadelphia missing receiver DeVonta Smith and tackle Lane Johnson for the matchup.

By the numbers: Parkinson caught 43 passes for 408 yards and eight touchdowns in 15 games for the Rams in 2025. Watson made 64 tackles with two sacks and two interceptions in 15 games with the Chiefs last season.

What to watch: Kickoff is scheduled for Sunday.
