A report by the NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport broke during the 2024 NFL Draft and indicated that Matthew Stafford was unhappy with the current structure of his contract and was seeking additional guarantees and security beyond this season. This storyline dominated offseason news coverage surrounding the Los Angeles Rams, especially leading up to training camp when many wondered whether Stafford would sit out of practice until a deal was struck.
All indications are that a contract adjustment between the Rams and Stafford went down to the wire and the deadline for players to report to camp.
