Does this sound like a rotator cuff injury?

Physios have done wonders for my slew of injuries.

I just don't like much of what they have to say as far as prescriptions of exercise for healthy people. Telling people to squat high to save the knees isn't my idea of solid evidence-based advice

The shoulder injury club has a massive membership, welcome. Best advice is to seek out a physio. Ive had two rotator cuff muscle injuries, first one I trained through it and it still haunts me today off and on. The second one, I sought out a physio and with knowing how to strengthen it, I was back to full strength within 4 weeks.

My limited experience suggests, as already well documented, kick out the wide grip in favour of a closer grip. I have had trouble in the past and this pretty much solved all issues overnight.

Also you should train you rotator cuff in isolation on occasion. There are a few exercises around but use light weights and make sure your shoulders are well rested before attempting pressing movements. But just take it easy when injured, don't rush back into pb's etc... Rest up, I reckon it's my number one training tool!
