Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford available for shock trade after playoff loss
Share:
Los Angeles Rams general manager Les Snead has teased the possibility of trading quarterback Matthew Stafford. Stafford led Sean McVay's side to the divisional round of the playoffs, where they were beaten by the Philadelphia Eagles in a tense snow game.
On Friday, however, Snead was asked about the quarterback's future in Los Angeles. Rather than shut down the possibility of Stafford leaving during the offseason, Snead suggested the 36-year-old could head elsewhere. Stafford - who is pondering retirement - has two seasons left on his contract, which will earn him a reported $103million. He is due a $4m bonus in mid-March, meaning the quarterback would need to be traded quickly.
'You don't want those issues dragging out throughout the offseason and kind of being a theme going into the season,' Snead said. 'On trades, that's one thing, it will take someone calling or us reaching out—that's the things that are going to be determined down the road here.'.
The Los Angeles Rams have teased the possibility of trading quarterback Matthew Stafford. The former first overall pick led Sean McVay's side to the divisional round of the playoffs. Los Angeles and Stafford faced a similar scenario last offseason. They eventually agreed to an adjusted contract on the day Rams players reported to training camp.
