Rams Rout Jaguars in London With Stafford’s Five TDs and Rookie Breakthroughs

With Puka Nacua sidelined by an ankle injury, opportunities expanded for late-round rookie Konata Mumpfield in the Rams’ London rout.

Overview

  • Konata Mumpfield, a 22-year-old seventh-round pick, caught a 5-yard pass on the opening drive for his first NFL touchdown.
  • Rookie tight end Terrance Ferguson added his first career score on a 31-yard fourth-and-1 reception at Wembley Stadium.
  • Matthew Stafford threw five touchdown passes to cap a 35–7 win over Jacksonville in the Week 7 international game.
  • Head coach Sean McVay had flagged increased snaps for backups with Puka Nacua out due to an ankle injury, creating a larger role for Mumpfield.
  • Teammates and coaches praised Mumpfield’s maturity and route-running after limited usage through six games behind established receivers.
