McDermott (undisclosed) was placed on injured reserve by the Rams on Wednesday.

McDermott suffered an undisclosed injury in the preseason, which will now force him to miss at least the first four games of the 2024 season. The offensive tackle is eligible to return in Week 5 against the Packers on Oct. 6.

McDermott (head) signed a contract with Los Angeles on Tuesday, Sarah Barshop of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
McDermott was cut by the Patriots back in April after having started five games at left tackle for the team in 2023. He now joins a Rams team in serious need of depth, given that starting tackles Alaric Jackson (ankle) and Rob Havenstein (foot) are both currently banged up.

New England released McDermott (head) on Monday.
EDGE Analysis
McDermott started five games at left tackle for the Patriots in 2023, but after adding Chukwuma Okorafor in free agency, New England has opted to let go of McDermott, who presumably is past the head injury that landed him on IR late last season, given that he was cut without an injury designation. He'll now have to look for another opportunity with a new team.

The Patriots signed McDermott off the practice squad Saturday, Mike Reiss of ESPN.com reports.
EDGE Analysis
The move corresponds with New England waiving quarterback Will Grier. McDermott joined the Patriots' practice squad Oct. 17 after reaching an injury settlement with the team Sept. 8. With offensive tackles Calvin Anderson (illness) and Tyrone Wheatley (knee) both on IR, McDermott will provide depth behind Mike Onwenu and Trent Brown.

The Patriots signed McDermott (undisclosed) to the practice squad Tuesday, Mark Daniels of The Providence Journal reports.
EDGE Analysis
McDermott spent time with New England before being let go with an injury settlement. Now that he's healthy, the veteran tackle will get a chance to handle an emergency depth role with a familiar team.
