On Saturday night, NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport reported that the plan is for Los Angeles Rams backup quarterback Brett Rypien to get the start under center against the Green Bay Packers on Sunday. Rams starting quarterback Matthew Stafford is currently dealing with a thumb injury, which reports earlier in the week claimed could land him on the injured reserve.
With a bye week following their matchup against the Packers, it seems as though Los Angeles is going to let Stafford heal up a little bit before he sees his next action.
