Matthew Stafford got an injection in his right elbow this offseason, presumably to help with some discomfort he was having. There are no concerns about his availability for Week 1, but the Rams played it safe with their franchise quarterback this spring by not allowing him to throw during OTAs or minicamp.
Stafford already said he’ll definitely be ready for training camp and will begin throwing to players in informal workouts this summer, but he would’ve loved to get some reps in with Cooper Kupp, Van Jefferson and Allen Robinson this spring.
New offensive coordinator Liam Coen is excited to see Stafford throw, too, but he found a silver lining in the quarterback’s limited work.
