Overview

• Garoppolo declined larger offers elsewhere to sign a one-year deal and return to Los Angeles as the Rams’ Plan C quarterback.
• Matthew Stafford has skipped all camp practices and is on a week-to-week recovery plan following an epidural for his aggravated back disc.
• Los Angeles has entrusted Garoppolo with the bulk of first-team reps, effectively making him the de facto starter until Stafford’s return.
• Sean McVay praised Garoppolo’s sharp performance in joint practices, highlighting his completion consistency and deep-ball accuracy against the Cowboys.
• Behind Garoppolo, the only quarterbacks on the roster are Stetson Bennett IV and Dresser Winn, both of whom lack regular-season NFL experience.
