Rams | Coach happy with Blake Corum Fri Jun 14, 12:11 PM
Los Angeles Rams RB Blake Corum was a standout performer during offseason workouts, according to head coach Sean McVay.
| Footballguys view: Kyren Williams is still the clear starter and seems to be over the foot issue that limited him in OTAs, but watch to see if Williams has any setbacks in camp. It sounds like the Rams offense wouldn't lose much if they have to turn to Corum. He's an excellent pick in the second half of best ball drafts. |
Rams | Jordan Whittington a quick study Fri Jun 14, 01:47 AM
Los Angeles Rams WR Jordan Whittington has been 'doing a great job' learning the offense and applying that knowledge to the playing field, according to offensive coordinator Mike LaFleur.
| Footballguys view: Whittington is a skilled and tough receiver, but fell to the sixth round because he doesn't have standout speed or quickness. He's similar to Ben Skowronek, who has been a useful player in the Rams offense at times, but not very productive or able to stand out in the passing game. |
Rams | No timetable for Tre'Davious White Wed Jun 12, 08:40 PM
Los Angeles Rams CB Tre'Davious White (Achilles) is making progress in his recovery but there is no official timetable for his return, according to head coach Sean McVay. The team hopes White will be ready for the start of the regular season.
Link to story Rams | Matthew Stafford at minicamp Wed Jun 12, 01:37 PM
Los Angeles Rams QB Matthew Stafford is participating in the minicamp this week and is expected to report to training camp on time, according to head coach Sean McVay.
| Footballguys view: Stafford has no guaranteed money on his deal after this year, so there has been some speculation that he would want more assurances for the future to play this year. Stafford appears to be ready to play out this season without new money. His elbow issues are behind him and he should help this be one of the best offenses for fantasy football again this year. |
Rams | Cooper Kupp finally healthy Fri Jun 7, 12:44 AM
Los Angeles Rams WR Cooper Kupp was never fully healthy last season, according to head coach Sean McVay. 'He looks strong,' McVay said. 'He looks sturdy. He's having fun. He's enjoying it.'
| Footballguys view: Kupp hasn't played a full season since 2021, but when he did he was the no.1 receiver in fantasy football with almost 2,000 yards receiving and 16 touchdowns. We're not projecting him for those totals this season, but Kupp could get 85-90 catches for around 1,100 yards and 8-10 touchdowns with ease. That makes him a WR2 option in 2024. |
Rams | Kyren Williams back on field Fri Jun 7, 12:44 AM
Los Angeles Rams RB Kyren Williams (foot) participated in some drills during the voluntary workout Thursday, June 6.
| Footballguys view: Williams is missing more practice time with a foot injury, something that has been a problem for him as a pro. Rams' HC Sean McVay said Williams would be out of action until training camp, but apparently, he's getting some work in during drills at OTAs. The Rams selected Michigan RB Blake Corum in the third round, and the rookie could push for a larger role and even battle Williams for the top spot on the depth chart. Stay tuned. |
Rams | Matthew Stafford will be at minicamp Wed Jun 5, 03:36 PM
Los Angeles Rams QB Matthew Stafford will be present for the mandatory minicamp next week even though he is seeking a new contract, according to head coach Sean McVay.
| Footballguys view: Stafford wants a new deal, but he's not going to miss mandatory minicamp. After dealing with various injuries over the last couple of seasons, a healthy Stafford would mean even better things for the Rams' passing game. Stafford's entire 2024 salary is guaranteed at $31 million, but he currently has only $10 million in fully guaranteed compensation for 2025. |
Rams | Jared Verse inks rookie deal Tue May 28, 04:17 PM
Los Angeles Rams first-round draft choice DE Jared Verse (Florida State) reportedly signed a four-year contract worth $15.134 million - including a $7.826 million signing bonus - on Tuesday, May 28. The deal includes a fifth-year team option.
Link to story Rams | Kyren Williams out until camp Tue May 21, 05:12 PM
Los Angeles Rams RB Kyren Williams (foot) is dealing with a foot injury and will not return to practice until training camp, according to head coach Sean McVay.
| Footballguys view: Coach Sean McVay downplayed the issue. "He'll be ready to go for training camp," McVay said of Williams. "Nothing to be concerned about." Still, as Profootballtalk.com pointed out, Williams has a history of foot and ankle issues. He broke his right foot on June 1, 2022, in OTAs as a rookie and required surgery to repair the Jones fracture. He dealt with high-ankle sprains during the 2022 and 2023 seasons. Williams has played 22 games and missed 12 since arrival. The Rams used a third-round draft pick on Michigan running back Blake Corum this spring. We'll be watching this situation closely as camp draws nearer. |
Rams | Matthew Stafford report for workouts Mon May 20, 08:59 PM
Los Angeles Rams QB Matthew Stafford participated in the voluntary workout Monday, May 20.
| Footballguys view: Stafford's entire 2024 salary is guaranteed at $31 million, and coach Sean McVay previously said he was unsure if Stafford would report to OTAs, considering his desire for more guaranteed money beyond 2024, which would keep the Rams from cutting him after this season. He currently has only $10 million in fully guaranteed compensation for 2025. That Stafford showed up suggests a deal is in the works. While we rank Stafford as QB21, his presence is vital to the Rams passing components we're more interested in -- Puka Nacua and Cooper Kupp. |
Rams | QB Stafford Looking for New Deal Sat May 18, 02:38 PM
Mike Florio, from ProFootballTalk.com, reports Los Angeles Rams QB Matthew Stafford is looking for a new contract.
| Footballguys view: With OTAs set to begin on Monday, many wonder whether Stafford will be there. He's been at voluntary workouts, but this contract issue has been reported before. Stafford is seeking an adjustment to his contract that would provide him with more guaranteed money beyond 2024, according to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. We'll see if this 'lingering offseason issue' comes to a close with more guaranteed money for Stafford or not. |
Rams | LA Rams ink two draft picks Thu May 16, 04:53 PM

Link to story Rams | Aubrey Pleasant named assistant head coach Thu May 16, 09:30 AM
Los Angeles Rams defensive passing game coordinator Aubrey Pleasant was named assistant head coach Thursday, May 16.
| Footballguys view: At one point, Pleasant was a rising star in the coaching ranks and interviewing for defensive coordinator jobs after Dan Campbell hired him to coach defensive backs in 2021. Before that, Pleasant was the cornerbacks coach for the Rams under Sean McVay. The Lions fired him in 2022 as the pass defense was struggling, but since then, he has helped McVay keep the Rams pass defense sound during a transition period for the franchise. He could get head coach interest if the Rams overachieve on defense again this season. |
Rams | LAR signs six draft picks Mon May 13, 07:14 PM
Los Angeles Rams third-round draft choice RB Blake Corum, sixth-round draft choice DT Tyler X. Davis, sixth-round draft choice PK Joshua Karty, sixth-round draft choice C Beaux Limmer, sixth-round draft choice WR Jordan Whittington and seventh-round draft choice OT KT Leveston signed four-year contracts with the Rams Monday, May 13. Financial terms were not disclosed.
| Footballguys view: Coming off a productive career at Michigan, Corum is expected to complement Kyren Williams in Los Angeles. The question is whether the newcomer will become a limiting factor for Williams, who is RB8 on the Footballguys 2024 Draft Rankings. Williams finished last year as fantasy's RB7, but volume was the key to his success. At this point, Corum's possible impact is something to watch as the Rams enter training camp and the exhibition season. |

| Footballguys view: The Rams have Kyren Williams as their lead back, and they selected Michigan RB Blake Corum in the third round of the 2024 NFL draft. Scott is a compact scat back who can make plays as a runner or receiver. Plus, he's got special teams value. |

Los Angeles Rams QB Matthew Stafford is seeking a contract revision that would allot him more guaranteed money past the 2024 season.
| Footballguys view: We'll see if the Rams oblige. Once thought to be on the verge of retirement, Stafford has another chapter left. In 2025, Stafford is on the books for $50.5 million with $47 million remaining in dead money. There's an out in his contract after that season, and we'll see where his health is at and if the Rams have other ideas. |

Of course, move up is relative. With Puka Nacua, Cooper Kupp, newly-re-signed Demarcus Robinson, and Tutu Atwell at the top of the depth chart, Johnson's work is cut out for him. |
