Reports out of the Rams training camp are that quarterback Matthew Stafford is dealing with "elbow discomfort." Head coach Sean McVay said at a press conference that the 34-year-old will not be participating in team drills. Of the reports out there, one noted that McVay "declined to call it a setback."
“This is part of the plan that we feel like is in his best interest,” McVay said. “So it’s a great opportunity for John Wolford and Bryce [Perkins] to be able to get a lot more reps than they would otherwise. Matthew’s going to stay engaged and that’s the plan that we think is best right now.”
The first thing I think of when I think of Stafford, besides this most recent season, was when he was mic'd up by the NFL and played through a separated shoulder in his rookie 2009 season to lead the Lions to a game-winning touchdown pass in the final seconds.
