Fans fear for Matthew Stafford’s NFL future after ‘worrying’ major injury update puts his 2025 season start in doubt
Stafford, 37, played through the pain for large parts of the 2024 season.
And he’ll now seemingly be a “week-to-week” player after further aggravating a disc in his back.
Veteran American football reporter Ian Rapport revealed the worrying update on two-time Pro Bowler Stafford, who has missed the start of the Rams’ pre-season training camp.
He wrote on X: “Sources: Rams QB Matthew Stafford is dealing with an aggravated disc and has received an epidural to help him deal with it.
Los Angeles has called him week-to-week, being cautious, but with plans for him to be ready for Week 1.”
Rapport added: “The Rams remain confident that Matthew Stafford will be ready to begin the regular season.
“But as was clear during yesterday’s joint practice with the #Cowboys, they love what Jimmy Garoppolo brings as his backup.”
