Stafford hasn’t been a fantasy QB1 in Los Angeles since his first season with the Rams in 2021 when he threw for nearly 5000 yards, 41 touchdowns, and 17 picks. In the three years since he’s finished outside the top-12 in each year and finished no higher than the QB15 despite additions like Puka Nacua and Kyren Williams being added to the offense. At 37 years old, Stafford is either in or past the twilight of his career and it seems like the Rams don’t want to hitch their boat entirely to Stafford’s durability, and that makes sense; however, a potential hole at quarterback for the Rams could complicate things in 2025 for Puka Nacua and co. According to reports, the Rams' representation met with Stafford’s representatives during Super Bowl Week to discuss the next steps forward with not too many constructive results. If things continue to remain at an impasse, a trade could reportedly be an option for the veteran passer. Waiting in the wings, too, is another veteran signal-caller looking to turn things around – Aaron Rodgers is expected to have interest in any potential opening with the Rams should it become available. Stafford’s next destination if not with the Rams is anyone’s guess, but with just Stetson Bennett as the only other QB on the roster and the Rams not within shouting distance of where the top QB prospects are expected to come off the board in the draft, LA could be in the market for a bridge quarterback… a role that Rodgers could play.
