Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford is in line to resume working out this week, Pro Football Talk reported Wednesday.
Stafford received an epidural to address a back injury and has been considered week-to-week by head coach Sean McVay.
NFL Network reported that Stafford is nursing an aggravated disc, however the former Super Bowl champion remains in the plan to take the field for the Rams’ season opener against the Houston Texans on Sept. 7 in Inglewood, Calif.
Stafford, 37, completed 340 of 517 passes (65.8 percent) for 3,762 yards, 20 touchdowns and eight interceptions while starting all 16 games that he played in 2024. He also was 45 of 71 (63.4 percent) for 533 yards, four TDs and no picks in two playoff games last season.
A two-time Pro Bowl selection, Stafford has completed 63.4 percent of his passes for 59,809 yards, 377 TDs and 188 interceptions in 222 regular-season games (all starts) with the Detroit Lions (2009-20) and Rams. The Lions selected him with the first overall pick of the 2009 NFL Draft out of Georgia.
Stafford led the Rams to a 23-20 win over the Cincinnati Bengals in Super Bowl LVI.
