Matthew Stafford had been seeking more guaranteed money in his contract, and on the first day of training camp the Rams announced his deal had been adjusted.
The issues with the contract of Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford have been resolved. Coach Sean McVay said Tuesday on the first day of training camp that the Rams and their veteran leader had agreed to a contract adjustment. Details were not given. Stafford, 36, was scheduled to earn $31 million this season and carry a salary-cap number of $49.5 million, according to Overthecap.com.
The Rams, coming off an unexpected playoff appearance last season, are regarded as a potential Super Bowl contender, but only with Stafford under center. Stafford, acquired by the Rams in 2021, was chasing a quarterback market that continued upward since signing his 2022 deal after their Super Bowl LVI victory. In May — four months after Jared Goff led the Detroit Lions to victory over the Rams in the NFC wild-card game — the Lions gave Goff an extension that includes $170 million in guarantees.
