Stafford was traded to the Rams from the Lions in January 2021 in what was a franchise-altering move for both teams, with Detroit landing quarterback Jared Goff in the swap. The Rams went on to win the Super Bowl in Stafford’s first season out West.

Matthew Stafford has a $4M roster bonus due in mid-March, and his contract has been set up as a “we’ll see” for 2025 and beyond. The money doesn’t create a hard deadline for a decision, but surely the Rams will want an idea of things 2 months from now.

Two NFC playoffs removed from winning his first Super Bowl in his first season as the Rams' quarterback, Stafford remains a tough call for voters.
