COO Demoff: Rams won't rush Goff extension

LOS ANGELES -- The Rams intend to extend the contract of quarterback Jared Goff.

But they won't be rushed into a deal just because the Philadelphia Eagles opted to sign quarterback Carson Wentz, who was selected second behind Goff in the 2016 NFL draft. Wentz this week agreed to a four-year, $128 million extension with Philly, with an NFL-record $107.9 million guaranteed, sources told ESPN's Adam Schefter.

"I don't want this to sound hollow, but I don't think it affects our conversations that much," Kevin Demoff, the Rams' chief operating officer and executive vice president of football operations, said Friday.
