## Resource

The Rams and 49ers are making history with their first-ever NFL game in Melbourne, Australia — and the Rams’ defense is poised to be a force. Myles Garrett could debut, Aaron Donald might return from retirement, and rookie Emmanuel Forbes Jr. is stepping into a bigger role as the team’s outside corner, thriving alongside Trent McDuffie and Jaylen Watson. Forbes has been a revelation, shutting down elite receivers like Jaxon Smith-Njigba and anchoring a pass rush that’s making life tough for quarterbacks. With defensive coordinator Chris Shula rotating energized players like Kam Kinchens and Quentin Lake, the Rams’ secondary is more versatile and dangerous than ever — and Forbes may just be the key to stopping the 49ers’ offense.
