Throughout training camp, the Los Angeles Rams had been agonising over how best to manage Myles Garrett's knee injury, yet in their season openera resounding defeat at the hands of the San Francisco 49ersit became plain for all to see that surgery was indispensable for this star defensive end.

トレーニングキャンプ期間中マイルズ・ギャレットの膝の負傷いかにして管理すべきか腐心していたロサンゼルス・ラムズであったが、サンフランシスコ・49ers惨敗を喫した開幕戦においてこのスターディフェンシブエンド手術が不可欠であることは、誰の目にも明らかとなった

In the Rams' 27-7 defeat held in Melbourne, Australia, Garrett was on the field for 61.5% of the defensive snaps, yet he recorded neither a single tackle nor a sack.

ギャレットはオーストラリアのメルボルンで挙行されたラムズの27対7の敗戦においてディフェンシブスナップの61.5%出場しながらもタックルおよびサック一切記録しなかった

Head Coach McVay stated on Monday that it had become clear from a conversation he had with Garrett immediately after the game the previous Thursday that he could not continue without undergoing surgery.

マクベイヘッドコーチは月曜日前週木曜日の試合直後にギャレットと交わした会話から手術を経なければ続行し得ないことが判明したと述べた

Although the Rams may soon receive reinforcements on the defensive line, it remains unclear when Aaron Donald will be available to play.

ラムズはディフェンシブラインにおいて間もなく支援を得る可能性があるものの、アーロン・ドナルドがいつ出場可能となるかは依然として不明である

"We were aware of that fact, and we were of the view that itthat is, Garrett's kneecould be overcome somehow," McVay said.

我々はその事実を認識しており——すなわちギャレットの膝——は何とか克服し得るものと踏んでいた」とマクベイは述べた

"However, actually taking the field and playing makes it clear that 'ah, perhaps that is not the case.'

しかしながら実際に試合に出場しプレーしてみることで、『ああそうではないのかもしれない』と明らかになる

Hence it is that we are going to change course."

ゆえに方針を転換しようという次第である

McBay was still awaiting the results of the surgery and did not have up-to-date information regarding Garrett's recovery timeline, which would extend beyond the minimum four games missed that accompany a stint on the injured list.

マクベイは負傷者リスト入りに伴う最低4試合の欠場を超えるギャレットの回復のタイムラインについて手術の結果を待っている段階にあり最新の情報を有していなかった

Although Garrett missed the majority of training camp due to knee swelling and the symptoms that had been described, McVay has not disclosed details regarding the precise nature of the injury.

ギャレットは膝の腫脹ならびに説明されていた症状によりトレーニングキャンプの大半を欠場したもののマクベイは負傷の正確な性質について詳細を明かしていない

In June, the Rams acquired the reigning AP Defensive Player of the Year from the Cleveland Browns in a blockbuster trade involving pass rusher Jared Verse and three draft picks, yet they were well aware that Garrett's workload had been carefully managed in recent years.

ラムズは6月パスラッシャーのジャレッド・ヴァース3つのドラフト指名権を対価とする大型トレードを通じて現AP最優秀守備選手賞受賞者をクリーブランド・ブラウンズから獲得したが近年ギャレットの仕事量が慎重に管理されていたことは承知していた

That was acceptable to McVay, who has frequently limited veterans' practice time in order to maximize their performance on game day.

それはベテラン選手の練習時間を頻繁に制限することで試合当日のパフォーマンスを最大化してきたマクベイにとって許容し得るものであった

"Realistically, our obligation amounts to nothing other than placing both the player and the team in a position to arrive at the outcome of success.

現実的には我々の責務とは選手とチームを成功という帰結へと導く立場に据えることにほかならない

We were intent on adopting an approach whereby he would play in sufficiently sound condition, contribute to positive change, and develop into a player capable of fully realizing the potential he harbors within.

彼が十分に良好なコンディションでプレーしポジティブな変革に寄与し自らが秘める能力を余すところなく発揮し得る選手へと成長する——そうしたアプローチを採る所存であった

Nevertheless, precisely because that did not come to pass, the correct course of action to take next is nothing other than to resolve this issue," McVay stated.

しかしながらそうはならなかったがゆえに次に講ずべき正しい方策はこの問題を解決することにほかならない」とマクベイは述べた

Garrett gave not the faintest hint of any physical concern before the match, and on Tuesday of last week he stated unequivocally that he was "ready."

ギャレットは試合前に身体的懸念を微塵も匂わせることなく先週火曜日には自らが「準備できている」と明言していた

"I think I'll be able to go out there and do what I know I'm capable of," he said.

「自分ができると分かっていることをしに出られると思う」と彼は述べた

At that press conference, Garrett, while accepting the immense expectations that accompanied his joining the Rams, stated unequivocally that his goals for the season were to win the Super Bowl and to be named the AP Defensive Player of the Year for a second consecutive time.

その記者会見において、ギャレットはラムズ加入に伴う多大なる期待を甘受しつつ、今季の目標としてスーパーボウル制覇、ならびにAP最優秀守備選手賞の連続受賞を掲げたと明言した。

It was none other than Garrett's arrival that elevated the Rams into a superteam, and his presence also played a part in the incentive that, last month, brought Donald out of retirement and back into the fold.

ラムズをスーパーチームへと昇華せしめたのは他ならぬギャレットの加入でありその存在は先月ドナルドを引退の身から復帰せしめる誘因の一端をも担ったのである

McVay stated that Garrett's absence would have no bearing whatsoever on when this outstanding defensive tackle returns to the field.

マクベイはギャレットの欠場がこの傑出したディフェンシブタックルがフィールドに復帰する時期に何ら影響を及ぼすことはない述べた

Donald, a three-time AP Defensive Player of the Year, did not travel to Australia with the team as he sought to regain playing fitness following a two-season absence from football.

AP最優秀守備選手賞を三度にわたり受賞したドナルドは二シーズンに及ぶフットボールからの離脱を経てプレー可能な体調を回復すべくチームとともにオーストラリアへ渡航することはなかった

McVay said it was still too early to know whether Donald would play in next Monday's home opener against the New York Giants.

マクベイはドナルドが来週月曜日のニューヨーク・ジャイアンツとのホーム開幕戦に出場するか否かを把握するにはいまだ時期尚早であると述べた

"He intends to continue with his own process, and I, for my part, intend to keep a close watch on whatever consequences that may bring," McVay said.

彼は自らのプロセスを継続していく所存でありそれがいかなる帰結をもたらすかしかと注視してまいりたい」とマクベイは述べた
