Stafford's Last Push: Rams' Smart Move for 2023

0:00On March 3rd, the Los Angeles Rams are banking on Matthew Stafford for one last championship push next season as the quarterback enters his age, 38-year. Fresh off an MVP award, Stafford led the team to the NFC Championship, with a narrowly loss to the Seattle Seahawks, who went on to win the Super Bowl. Rams' general manager, Les Sneed, recently shared that the team and Stafford are sticking to a year-by-year plan for his contract. He has one season left on the two-year deal he signed back in May of 2025, and while an extension could happen his off-season, it would. Still let Stafford call the shots annually on his future. Stafford has always been a total pro throughout his career, so he'd likely support the Rams grooming a younger quarterback as his potential successor down the line. That approach makes sense given his age and the team's long-term goals. Looking ahead, the Rams bolst one of the league's strongest rosters and plan to build on it during free agency, which kicks off March 11. They're eyeing key additions to staying contention after coming so close this year.

1:03With Stafford at the helm for at least one more run, the Rams are positioning themselves smartly for both the short-term and beyond. And beyond. And beyond. And beyond. And beyond. And beyond. And beyond. And beyond. And beyond. And beyond.
