Rams' Hunter Long: Snags pair of targets
Long secured both of his targets for 16 yards during Sunday's 24-19 loss to the Packers.
While Long's 17 snaps on offense was a typical week of usage for the fourth-year tight end, the two catches marked his first two as a Ram. Starting tight end Colby Parkinson led the team with 13 targets, which he turned into seven catches for 52 yards. Fellow backup Davis Allen failed to secure his only target and was on the field for just three snaps, leaving Long as the primary backup to Parkinson heading into the Rams' Week 6 bye.

Rams' Hunter Long: Fails to make an impact
Long failed to bring in either of his two targets during Saturday's 13-9 victory against the Chargers.
The battle to start the season as the No. 2 tight end behind Colby Parkinson while Tyler Higbee (knee) remains on the mend, seems to be leaning toward Davis Allen. Long hasn't done anything to make himself stand out over the second-year pro, and Allen showed enough when called upon in the latter half of the 2023 campaign to secure a roster spot. Long will likely be the tertiary option at tight end to start the year unless he breaks out in a big way against the Texans in the Rams' preseason finale, and he will likely struggle to find snaps on offense even before Higbee's eventual return.

Rams' Hunter Long: Participating in OTAs
Long (knee) has been a participant at the Rams' OTA sessions, Cameron DaSilva of Rams Wire reports.
Long finished the 2023 campaign on injured reserve following MCL surgery, but he now looks to be fully healthy heading into the 2024. The tight end appeared in four games last season, failing to garner a target while playing 54 offensive snaps and he projects to be a depth option behind Tyler Higbee (knee), Colby Parkinson and Davis Allen this year.

Rams' Hunter Long: Moves to IR
Long (knee) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday.
Long was already reportedly set for season-ending MCL surgery, so this news doesn't come as much of a surprise. The Boston College product's third NFL season will come to a close with just four games played and no catches or targets. He'll now focus on his recovery and returning healthy in 2024.

Rams' Hunter Long: Done for season
Rams head coach Sean McVay said Monday that Long (knee) will require season-ending MCL surgery, Adam Grosbard of The Orange County Register reports.
Long was carted to the locker room during Sunday's 37-31 overtime loss to the Ravens, and after getting follow-up tests, the Rams determined that he suffered a significant injury. While Tyler Higbee (neck) was sidelined for the Week 14 contest, Long had been poised to take on a larger workload before going down with an injury of his own. Rookie Davis Allen -- who caught four of five targets for 50 yards and a touchdown versus Baltimore -- and Brycen Hopkins are now the team's healthiest options at tight end, though Higbee could be ready to play in next Sunday's game against the Commanders. Long closes the 2023 season without any targets across 54 snaps on offense over four games.

Rams' Hunter Long: Carted to locker room
Long (knee) was carted to the locker room and is considered doubtful to return to Sunday's game against the Ravens, Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.
Long appears to have sustained a signficiant knee injury at some point during the first half, as his departure via a cart likely indicates he won't be available to return for the remainder of the contest. The third-year tight end appeared in just three game coming into Sunday, but his absence will now leave the Rams without their top two tight ends, as starter Tyler Higbee (neck) is already inactive. Brycen Hopkins and rookie Davis Allen will have to step into bigger roles for the time being.

Rams' Hunter Long: Still not slated to return
Long (hamstring) has been ruled out for Sunday's game versus Green Bay, Adam Caplan of SiriusXM NFL Radio reports.
Long was designated to return from injured reserve Oct. 25, but he wasn't activated for Week 8 against Dallas despite logging a trio of full practice sessions ahead of that contest. The third-year tight end practiced in full all three days this week as well, but the Rams are opting to hold him out for another game. Los Angeles is on bye next week, so Long's next chance to suit up will be Sunday, Nov. 19 against Seattle.
