## Resource

The Rams are keeping their quarterback backup situation a mystery, with Stetson Bennett and rookie Ty Simpson both vying for the No. 2 spot under Sean McVay’s evolving strategy. Unlike past seasons with clear-cut backups like Jimmy Garoppolo, McVay is prioritizing development—especially for Simpson, seen as a future starter—while Bennett, a free agent after this season, gets less long-term commitment. Game-day rosters could shift weekly as McVay evaluates both players, and whoever’s listed as QB2 will be the emergency option if Stafford goes down. It’s a bold, fluid approach that signals a new era for the Rams’ QB room. Listen in comfort: Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
