Moved to IR
Funk (hamstring) was placed on injured reserve Tuesday.
Analysis: This move comes as no surprise, as the running back was ruled out for the remainder of the season Monday. The 23-year-old mostly operated as a special teams option this year, only playing 17 offensive snaps in six contests.

Shut down for season
Funk has been ruled out for the remainder of the 2021 season due to a torn hamstring that may require surgery, J.B. Long of the Los Angeles Rams Radio Network reports.
Analysis: Funk has been lost for the season after picking up a hamstring injury in Sunday's matchup against the Giants. He appeared in six contests, rushing once for six yards while accruing 88 yards on kick returns.

Downgraded to out
Funk (hamstring) won't return to Sunday's game against the Giants, according to Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic.
Analysis: As expected, Funk has been downgraded and won't return to the game -- which was a likely scenario given how tricky hamstring injuries can be. His next chance to play will be in Week 7 against the Lions, but his availability will depend on the severity of the injury.

Picks up hamstring injury
Funk (hamstring) is questionable to return to Sunday's game against the Giants, according to Jourdan Rodrigue of The Athletic.
Analysis: It's unclear when Funk picked up the injury, but hamstring problems are unpredictable, and there's no clarity regarding his potential return to action. He wasn't expected to hold a big role on offense with Darrell Henderson and Sony Michel both available, though.

No offensive snaps Week 4
Funk played exclusively on special teams and didn't record any stats during Sunday's 37-20 loss to the Cardinals.
Analysis: With Darrell Henderson inactive for Week 3, Funk saw 14 offensive snaps. However, with Henderson back in the mix for Week 4, the rookie was relegated to special-teams duties. The Maryland product is firmly supplanted behind both Sony Michel and Henderson on the depth chart and does not provide any immediate fantasy upside.

Handles single carry in win
Funk rushed once for six yards and played 14 offensive snaps during Sunday's 34-24 win over Tampa Bay.
Analysis: The rookie's only carry was the first rush of the game for the Rams, and then Funk gave way to Sony Michel. Michel took 20 totes for 67 yards, and while those numbers don't jump off the stat sheet, the Buccaneers boast a formidable run defense. With Darrell Henderson (ribs) potentially back in the mix for Week 4, and Michel clearly ahead of Funk in the backfield pecking order, there's not a lot of immediate fantasy upside for the first year rusher out of Maryland.

To have bigger role Sunday
Funk is set for an expanded role Sunday against the Buccaneers with Darrell Henderson (ribs) inactive for the contest, Jordan Rodrigue of The Athletic reports.
Analysis: Rodrigue labels Funk as a "featured" back along with veteran Sony Michel, but given the latter's edge in experience and solid second-half showing (10 carries, 46 yards) against the Colts in Week 2, it's reasonable to expect he'll pace the backfield in carries. Nevertheless, Funk should be in line for a solid complementary role at a minimum after playing just three snaps from scrimmage over the first two games of his NFL career, all coming last Sunday against Indianapolis.

Little action in win
Funk logged three snaps on offense during Sunday's 27-24 win over the Colts.
Analysis: Funk failed to see any rushing attempts or targets in the contest. The rookie running back has not been a part of the Rams' offensive game plan through two weeks, as he is seeing most of his playing time on special teams. Instead, Darrell Henderson and Sony Michel have been carrying the load in the backfield. Henderson suffered a rib injury in Week 2, but the Rams are optimistic about his ability to practice this week. Although Michel would be the biggest beneficiary if Henderson has to miss…read more

No offensive snaps
Funk logged 11 snaps on special teams during Sunday's 34-14 win over the Bears.
Analysis: Funk failed to see any snaps on offense, as fellow running backs Darrell Henderson and Sony Michel carried the load. Henderson totaled 16 carries while Michel logged just one carry. As the No. 3 running back on the team, Funk will likely have difficulty finding consistent opportunities on offense. It's hard to imagine a path to fantasy relevance for the 5-foot-10, 203-pound rookie if both Henderson and Michel can stay healthy. The Rams are set to take on the Colts in Week 2.

Drops on depth chart
Funk has more competition for snaps following the Rams' trade for fellow running back Sony Michel on Wednesday, Kevin Modesti of The Orange County Register reports.
Analysis: While the majority of rookie seventh-round picks have been desperately clawing for third-string spots, Funk has spent his summer competing with Xavier Jones for No. 2 standing on the Los Angeles depth chart, behind presumed starter Darrell Henderson after Cam Akers suffered an Achilles tear in July. The addition of Michel makes things a bit more crowded, but Funk still is in good shape relative to other late-round picks, with the running-back position arguably the biggest question mark for an…read more

Inefficient in preseason loss
Funk rushed five times for 12 yards and brought in his only target for minus-5 yards in the Rams' 13-6 preseason loss to the Chargers on Saturday night.
Analysis: The rookie recently received praise from head coach Sean McVay for his work in training camp thus far, but he was unable to validate the accolades much Saturday with an inefficient performance. Funk should still have an inside track to a roster spot with Cam Akers' Achilles injury opening up a clearer path to such, and he'll look to acquit himself more impressively against the Raiders in next Saturday night's preseason clash.

Busy preseason ahead
Funk and Xavier Jones should be busy this preseason, as the Rams likely will play it safe with projected starter Darrell Henderson, Ryan Kartje of the Los Angeles Times reports.
Analysis: Funk is a sixth-round rookie who took only 135 carries throughout his college career, while Jones is a second-year pro who strictly played special teams after catching on with the Rams as an undrafted rookie last year. The two are listed as co-No. 2s on the team's initial preseason depth chart, ahead of scatbacks Raymond Calais (5-8, 188) and Otis Anderson (5-11, 174). Most reports put Jones in the lead for the second RB spot, but Funk should have plenty of chances to make his case this…read more

Climbs depth chart
Funk will move up the depth chart after teammate Cam Akers suffered a torn Achilles, but the rookie still looks to be behind Darrell Henderson and Xavier Jones in the Rams backfield, Kevin Modesti of The Orange County Register reports.
Analysis: This is the type of situation where a little-known player could make an impact, but as a rookie seventh-round pick, Funk will need to earn a roster spot first and foremost. He was a backup throughout most of his college career at Maryland, before taking 60 carries for 516 yards and three touchdowns in five games his senior season. Funk then boosted his draft stock with a sub-4.5-second 40-yard dash at his pro day, ultimately landing in Los Angeles on draft day with the 233rd overall pick. In…read more
