Matthew Stafford Suffers Ankle Sprain

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford sustained a lateral ankle sprain during the team's Week 13 win over the New Orleans Saints, but coach Sean McVay reassured that the injury is minor and should not affect Stafford's practice or game status for the upcoming matchup against the Buffalo Bills. Stafford, who has completed 66% of his passes this season with 17 touchdowns, notably threw two touchdowns in the fourth quarter of the recent game. The injury reportedly occurred in the second quarter while he was taken to the ground, although he continued to play and performed well. Additionally, the Rams have signed cornerback Emmanuel Forbes Jr. off waivers to strengthen their secondary, while tight end Tyler Higbee is expected to miss another week but is making progress in his recovery. The Rams currently hold a 6-6 record, competing for a playoff spot in the NFC West. Stafford's performance will be crucial as the Rams aim to keep their playoff hopes alive against a strong Bills team.
