THOUSAND OAKS, Calif. -- Speaking for the first time since he was placed on the reserve/non-football illness list last September, Los Angeles Rams backup quarterback Stetson Bennett confirmed his time away from the team was related to his mental health.
Bennett said he wanted to keep the reason for his absence "in-house," but when asked if it would be "it be accurate to say that it fell under the umbrella of mental health," Bennett said, "Yeah, I'd say that."
Bennett, a 2023 fourth-round draft pick out of Georgia, was expected to back up Rams starting quarterback Matthew Stafford last season.
