Ready for Sunday night Kiser (groin) is active for Sunday's game against the 49ers, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

Impact Kiser was officially listed as questionable for Sunday's contest, but the Rams never appeared to seriously doubt that he'd manage to suit up. The third-year pro stands to draw his usual start at linebacker versus San Francisco.

On track to play Sunday Coach Sean McVay said Kiser (groin) is officially questionable but is expected to play Sunday versus the 49ers, Kevin Modesti of the Los Angeles Daily News reports.

Impact Barring a setback, Kiser should start at inside linebacker after a one-game absence. He's been an intriguing IDP option when he's played, as the third-year pro piled up 32 tackles and three pass breakups through the first three games. Kiser's official status will be revealed about 90 minutes before Sunday's 8:20 p.m. ET kickoff.

Still managing injury Kiser (groin) was a limited participant during Wednesday's practice.

Impact Kiser was forced to miss last week's game against Washington with the groin issue, however, he appears to be gearing up for a return. The Virginia product had assumed a starting role this season before getting hurt, racking up 32 tackles (21 solo), three pass breakups and a forced fumble. If Kiser is forced to miss more time, Justin Hollins and Troy Reeder would be in line for an uptick in snaps.

Not able to go against Washington Kiser (groin) has been ruled out for the Rams' Week 5 matchup against Washington, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

Impact Kiser had been in the starting lineup Weeks 1 through 4 after failing to register a single start over his first two years in the league (though he did miss all of 2019 with a torn pectoral injury). The 25-year-old linebacker had already racked up an impressive 32 tackles through the first quarter of Los Angeles' regular-season slate, but now Justin Hollins will see increased usage at middle linebacker against Washington's 30th-ranked rush offense.

Status unclear for Sunday Kiser (groin) is considered questionable for Sunday's game versus Washington, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.

Impact Kiser logged his first practice Friday and operated in a limited capacity, so he has a chance to play Sunday. He's likely on the wrong side of questionable, however, and if he sits out, expect Justin Hollins and Troy Reeder to rotate in alongside starter Kenny Young.

Misses practice Wednesday Kiser (groin) didn't participate in Wednesday's practice, Kevin Modesti of the Los Angeles Daily News reports.

Impact Kiser was declared day-to-day after leaving a Week 4 win over the Giants with pec and groin injuries. He was only listed with the groin injury Wednesday, but he's trending in the wrong direction by sitting out practice altogether. Fellow starting inside linebacker Kenny Young (knee) also missed practice, so Justin Hollins and Troy Reeder are slated to take first-team reps until the two return.

Considered day-to-day Kiser is considered day-to-day while battling both pec and groin injuries, Lindsey Thiry of ESPN.com reports.

Impact Kiser left the team's Week 4 contest against the Giants early. He had played 100 percent of the team's defensive snaps this season prior to the his exit, so if he is forced to miss the Rams' upcoming contest at Washington there will be a big void in the middle of the defense.

Exits with injury Kiser is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Giants due to a groin injury.

Impact Kiser normally handles an every-down role on defense, so if he's forced to miss time it will be a significant blow to Los Angeles' already-thin linebacker corps. Justin Hollins stands to handle an increased role in the meantime.
