Rams Rest Key Players Against Seahawks

The Los Angeles Rams are resting several key offensive starters, including quarterback Matthew Stafford, wide receivers Cooper Kupp and Puka Nacua, and running back Kyren Williams, in their regular-season finale against the Seattle Seahawks. Head coach Sean McVay emphasized the decision aims to prioritize player health ahead of the playoffs, as the Rams have already secured the NFC West title. Rookie quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo will start in Stafford's place, while other offensive linemen will also sit out to evaluate younger players. Notably, Nacua finishes the season just 10 yards short of 1,000 receiving yards, while Williams ends with impressive rushing stats. The Rams are currently 10-6 and can clinch the No. 3 seed with a win, but the team's focus is on ensuring their top performers are ready for the postseason.
