The Rams’ veteran quarterback missed preseason action and most of training camp due to lingering back soreness — for which he’s received epidurals to manage pain — and his wife, Kelly Stafford, is taking speculation over his health in stride.

This could be the case once more in 2025. The Ringer's Sheil Kapadia ranked the Rams as the 11th-best offense in the NFL heading into the season despite concerns about the health of Stafford. The infrastructure around him — schemes and players alike — play a big role in the prediction for this Rams' squad.

For Stafford, joining the Rams meant aligning an elite offensive play-caller in Sean McVay and having a championship-caliber supporting cast around him. The results were immediate as he threw for 4,886 yards and 41 touchdowns en route to L.A. winning a Super Bowl.
