Blake Corum to Miss 2024 Postseason Due to Injury

Blake Corum, a rookie running back for the Los Angeles Rams, suffered a fractured forearm during a 30-25 loss to the Seattle Seahawks, ruling him out for the entirety of the 2024 postseason. Corum, a third-round pick from Michigan, had a promising but limited role this season, recording 207 rushing yards and 58 receiving yards. Despite expectations for a significant contribution in the playoffs, his injury has left the Rams with Ronnie Rivers as the primary backup to lead running back Kyren Williams. Corum’s injury is a setback in his burgeoning career, echoing past instances of resilience, such as when he returned to Michigan after a meniscus tear to win a national championship. The Rams, who secured the No. 4 seed, will face the loser of the Vikings-Lions matchup in the wild card round. A precise timeline for Corum's recovery is anticipated soon.
