Matthew Stafford, the Los Angeles Rams quarterback, is finally receiving the recognition he deserves after years of flying under the radar. His time with the Detroit Lions was marked by the team's struggles, which often overshadowed his individual talent. However, winning his first Super Bowl with the Rams in 2022 shifted the narrative, bringing him the attention he had long earned.
This offseason, Stafford continues to garner praise, not just from fans and analysts but also from his peers. Houston Texans quarterback C.J. Stroud recently highlighted Stafford's excellence, and his Rams teammates are equally vocal about his impact. Rams running back Kyren Williams shared a story about Stafford's resilience, recalling how he led a game-winning drive despite being visibly injured.
"It's great, it's awesome. He's a dog, he's an absolute dog," Williams told Eisen. "I remember last year during the Indianapolis game, he's literally hobbling to the line and he's going to go on a game-winning drive. Being around guys like that, it leads you to only want to be great ... he's one of the greatest quarterbacks to play this game. It's a blessing every time to play the field with somebody like that."
