The Los Angeles Rams ramped up Matthew Stafford’s workload in practice on Tuesday, with the veteran quarterback taking 60-plus reps in an intrasquad scrimmage. Sean McVay spoke to the media after practice and the energetic coach seemed encouraged with Stafford’s performance.
“I thought he had great energy, great command all day. I thought he threw the ball incredibly accurately in all parts of the field. Really activated all parts of our pass game. There’s a couple where he’s hitting the spots and we just gotta be able to finish some of those plays,” McVay said. “I’m encouraged because we can coach off of those and we’re getting those opportunities to feel what it’s like for him to throw with Allen. Ben Skowronek made a handful of plays. Also, Tutu. He’s got a comfort level with Higbee and Cooper, but some of these newer guys, today was a great step in the right direction to be able to start establishing that rapport that will be critical for this year.”
