Rams Draft Ty Simpson, QB of the Future

0:00On April 24, the Los Angeles Rams just grabbed Alabama quarterback Ty Simpson with the 13th pick in the 2026 NFL draft. This move puts a promising young arm right into their high-powered offense, setting up Simpson to compete in a stacked quarterback room. He's already hyped about the opportunity, talking up the chance to soak up wisdom from head coach Sean McVey and veteran star Matthew Stafford, one of the all-time greats. Simpson balled out last season, finishing seventh in a nation with 305 completions, and 10th with 305 hundred, 67 passing yards. He earned a spot as a Manning Award finalist and grabbed second team all SEC honors as team captain. Before taking over as the full-time starter in 2025, he spent time as a reserve, playing behind Jalen Merot in 2000, 23 in 2024, and even backing up Merot and Bryce Young during his red shirt year in 2022. Now the Rams get to mold this rising talent early.
