""We're not going to truly rule out the possibility of Steve [Avila] being able to go, but fortunately for us, we have established some depth where we've got some guys that if they need to be able to step up, they've shown that they're more than capable of that," McVay said."
"McVay declined to say who would start in place of Avila if he cannot go, but it would likely be second-year guards Beaux Limmer or Justin Dedich. Limmer played 44 snaps in Week 1, first replacing Avila at left guard and then moving to right guard to take Dotson's place. After starting all 17 games as a rookie, Avila played in just 10 last season after injuring his knee in Week 1."
Right guard Kevin Dotson, who exited the season opener with an ankle injury, will play Sunday against the Tennessee Titans, coach Sean McVay said. Left guard Steve Avila (ankle) and tight end Colby Parkinson (shoulder) are listed as doubtful. McVay said the team will not rule out Avila but emphasized established depth and capability of backups. If Avila cannot play, second-year guards Beaux Limmer or Justin Dedich would likely start. Limmer played 44 snaps in Week 1, replacing Avila at left guard and moving to right guard for Dotson. Avila and Dotson have significant recent starting experience.
