Rams tight end Temarrick Hemingway suffered a broken fibula Saturday during a preseason loss to the Chargers and will have surgery this week, coach Sean McVay said Sunday. Hemingway, a second-year pro, could be sidelined eight to 10 weeks or three to four months, depending on what doctors see during surgery, McVay said. The sixth-round draft pick from South Carolina State said during training camp that his rookie season was a lesson in acclimation. In McVay’s tight end-centric offense, Hemingway found a role along with fellow second-year pro Tyler Higbee and rookie Gerald Everett. Undrafted rookie tight ends Travis Wilson and Johnny Mundt will have opportunities in Thursday’s preseason finale against the Green Bay Packers.
