Matthew Stafford plans to be back with the Los Angeles Rams next season. The 37-year-old quarterrier said at his press conference in the playoff series that he wanted to take some time to think about his future, where he seems to have made a decision according to a new report.
Ian Rapoport of NFL Network spoke to the future of Stafford to return to an episode of The initiates Wednesday.
“I understand that Matthew Stafford actually plans to play next season,” said Rapoport. “This is essentially what he communicated to the Rams. He wanted to take a little time and said to them” I feel good, I don’t see why I would not play. “”

Rapoport noted that Rams will likely have to conclude a new agreement with Stafford. It is due to $ 27 million next year, which is not guaranteed. Stafford and the Rams restructured his contract before the 2024 season, which noted Rapoport should happen in 2025.
Los Angeles lost in the divisional round against the possible NFC champion, Philadelphia Eagles. During the season, Stafford launched for 3,762 yards with 20 touchdown at eight interceptions. Now, the winner of the Super Bowl LVI seems ready for a return to Los Angeles next season.
