The future of the Los Angeles Rams Campo Mariscal situation is based on the shoulders of its current opener, Matthew Stafford.
At 37, Stafford's 15 -year game career could be prepared to make another movement, since his contract has a potential this season that would allow him to find a new home if he wishes.
Rams themselves may also be looking to make a change, but their future planning is essentially in limbo until Stafford decides what he wants to do.
While Stafford, the team or chief coach Sean McVay has not made indications, there are rumors about their choice.
According Albeer Breer of Sports IllustratedPeople close to the field marshal “think they finally want to stay in Los Angeles and play for Sean McVay.”
Breer added: “We will see if the Rams can resolve the part of the contract of this, which will determine what follows.”
People close to Matthew Stafford believe that the field marshal wants to keep the Rams
The reports indicate that Stafford wants to continue his association with the chief coach Sean McVay
If Stafford leaves, a potential destination would be Pittsburgh Steelers of Mike Tomlin
But if Stafford decides to move, Breer believes that the “most attractive destination for a major veteran field marshal like Matthew Stafford or (Aaron) Rodgers would be the Pittsburgh Steelers.
Among the reasons include, “how many pieces exist, the history of the franchise and the presence of the offensive coordinator Arthur Smith.”
But if people close to him know what Stafford is thinking, then staying in Los Angeles can be what ends up happening.
The problem of the contract is that if the Rams choose not to participate, they will have $ 49 million in a dead capitalization space that will harm their ability to potentially grab free agents.
But Stafford's salary has recently jumped and the Rams may need to negotiate their agreement to adapt.
After winning a base salary of only $ 1.5 million in the first year of an extension of four years he signed in 2022, Stafford's salary fired up to $ 23.5 million last year.
He is ready to win $ 23 million in 2025 and $ 26 million in 2026, after which he would be a free agent at 39.
Stafford will lose its superior objective after the RAMS put the Open Receiver Cooper Kupp in the commercial block in a shock decision.
If Stafford stays with the Rams, it will be without its main objective: the Open Receiver Cooper Kupp
The news that Kupp was in the commercial block surprised Stafford's wife, Kelly, who criticized the team
The measure was a surprise for many, including Stafford's wife, Kelly, who launched the decision in an episode of Podcast.
My husband wants to win. He is not trying to put a team in a bad situation, '' Kelly said about her Podcast 'The Morning After'. “I will say Cooper's trade, I am confused … because we were to a play to go to the NFC championship, and I think if we go, we win.”
According Fox Sports Colin Cowherd hostRams officials have become “tired” of Stafford's wife speaking in the media, which means they are ready to let it go.
“The Rams like Matt Stafford, but are exhausting of the constant talk of Mariscal de Campo, his wife says things publicly,” Cowherd said in his 'The Herd' program. 'They are not very happy with Cooper Kupp making public with something they tried to keep quiet (seeking to exchange it).
'They are a little about Cooper Kupp and with that a little Matt Stafford. They like, but they don't want to restructure their treatment and give it a great contract.
Other teams linked to Stafford include New York giants, who have the third general selection in this year's NFL draft.
Last season, Stafford was 13 in the League in air yards and launched 20 touchdowns and eight interceptions. The Rams arrived at the playoffs and lost to the Philadelphia Eagles in the Divisional Round of the NFC.
