Summary
Matthew Stafford, the 2025 MVP, signed a $55 million extension with the Rams, securing his position as one of the leagues highest-paid QBs. This move ensures he wont face a lame-duck season and keeps him with the team through 2027. Staffords career has seen a resurgence since joining the Rams in 2021, leading them to a Super Bowl title and multiple playoff appearances. The extension also marks a shift in Staffords approach to his career, with a renewed commitment to playing. The Rams draft of Ty Simpson, a former Alabama standout, remains a backup plan, as Staffords job is secure as long as he wants it.
