Rams QB Matthew Stafford Week-to-Week with Aggravated Back Disc

News summary

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford is currently dealing with an aggravated disc in his back, for which he has received an epidural. Head coach Sean McVay described Stafford's condition as 'week to week' but expressed confidence that he would be ready for the regular-season opener against the Houston Texans, emphasizing a cautious approach to his recovery. Stafford is expected to work out and potentially return to practice soon, barring any setbacks, with the team maintaining that he would be playing if there were a game this week. The injury is separate from a previous spinal cord contusion Stafford suffered in 2022, and the Rams are optimistic about his progress under the guidance of medical experts. Meanwhile, backup quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo is spending more time with the starters during the preseason as Stafford recovers, providing depth for the team. The Rams aim to have Stafford fully healthy to contend for the Super Bowl this season.
