Los Angeles Rams Injury Update

The Los Angeles Rams continue to be without their veteran quarterback Matthew Stafford, as he remains sidelined from practice with a back issue, according to local reporters.

Stafford’s absence is being monitored closely by the coaching staff, as the 36-year-old signal caller is the unquestioned leader of the Rams’ offense. While the team has not provided a specific timetable for his return, keeping him healthy and ready for the regular season will be a top priority.

With Stafford out, the Rams are giving extra reps to their backup quarterbacks, which could prove valuable if the team needs to lean on them at any point this season. Still, the hope in Los Angeles is that this is simply precautionary and not a sign of a longer-term problem.
