Jared Goff

Sean McVay says he can’t talk about Matthew Stafford until the new league year begins in mid-March and the Los Angeles Rams’ blockbuster quarterback trade is official. He’s still allowed to talk about Jared Goff, but the coach isn’t saying much. In his first public comments since the Rams agreed to ship Goff to Detroit, McVay gave only a few minor...

The new star quarterback for the Los Angeles Rams is finally speaking out about the trade that saw him depart Detroit for the bright lights of Hollywood. After spending 12 years with the Detroit Lions, Stafford requested a trade from the only organization he’s ever known. A few days later, the Lions traded Stafford to the Rams in exchange for…

Los Angeles Rams’ defensive tackle Aaron Donald has another award to add to his trophy case. Donald joined elite company on Saturday night as he was named the 2020 NFL Defensive Player of the Year Award winner. It is the third time in his career that Donald has won the award. In doing so, Donald joined elite company becoming just…

The Detroit Lions are trading quarterback Matthew Stafford to the Los Angeles Rams in exchange for quarterback Jared Goff, two future first-round picks and a third-round pick, a person with knowledge of the deal tells The Associated Press. The person spoke on condition of anonymity Saturday night because the deal has not been completed. ESPN first reported the swap, which…

The Los Angeles Rams’ surprisingly successful season hadn’t even been over for a full day before the task of building on it got exponentially tougher. Brandon Staley’s crosstown departure Sunday for the top job with the Los Angeles Chargers left the Rams looking for the third coordinator in three seasons for their No. 1-ranked defense. The Rams also face...

Just over a year ago, as the waning seconds ticked off the clock in the Green Bay Packers 37-20 loss to the San Francisco 49ers in the NFC Championship Game, Aaron Rodgers turned to his teammate and said, “I wish we could get one of these at home.” On Saturday, Rodgers got his wish. The well-rested Packers hosted the Los…

Green Bay’s Davante Adams has caught more touchdown passes over the last five seasons than any other player. Jalen Ramsey of the Los Angeles Rams is one of the NFL’s premier cornerbacks. They finally will face each other in a game that matters Saturday when the top-seeded Packers (13-3) host the Rams (11-6) in an NFC divisional playoff game. The...

Jared Goff and Sean McVay say they had a healthy, productive disagreement last week about Goff’s readiness to return from thumb surgery. They’re in complete accord this week, however: Goff is the best choice to lead the Los Angeles Rams in the playoffs. Goff will start the Rams’ postseason game at Green Bay on Saturday, while John Wolford will...

Michael Brockers’ time away from the Los Angeles Rams was tough on both the defensive tackle and his teammates and coaches, who all rely on their veteran leader for much more than his prowess on the field. So when Sean McVay heard Brockers’ trademark laughter booming through the team’s pregame breakfast room last Saturday in Seattle, the coach knew...

Green Bay Packers coach Matt LaFleur and Los Angeles Rams coach Sean McVay say their friendship and shared history shouldn’t have much of an impact on their teams’ upcoming NFC divisional playoff matchup. LaFleur was the Rams’ offensive coordinator in 2017 during the first year of McVay’s head coaching tenure after they spent four seasons as assistants on Mike...

Cam Akers grew up in Mississippi, and his football journey has taken him to Tallahassee and Los Angeles. So the Rams’ rookie running back hasn’t spent a whole lot of time in the type of frigid weather he’s about to experience in Green Bay, where it’s expected to be below 25 degrees at kickoff Saturday before the sun goes...

The Los Angeles Rams lost their starting quarterback early in the first half, and their two-time reigning NFL Defensive Player of the Year to start the second half. Nonetheless, they found a way to win without them. Playing with a broken thumb, just 12 days after he underwent surgery that placed two screws inside the bone, Jared Goff threw for…

Los Angeles Rams quarterback John Wolford has been transported to a hospital via ambulance for observation after injuring his neck in the NFC wild card opener at Seattle. Wolford was injured on a hit by safety Jamal Adams on a designed run in the first quarter. Wolford got the start because Jared Goff was just 12 days removed from thumb…

Andrew Whitworth put his surgically repaired knee through seven weeks of tough rehabilitation starting in mid-November because he believed the Los Angeles Rams would be fighting for a championship if he could get back in time. The 39-year-old left tackle was absolutely right — and if the rest of the week goes well, the anchor of Los Angeles’ offensive line…

Brandon Staley doesn’t have a lot of time to reflect on his stunning success in his first season as the Los Angeles Rams’ defensive coordinator, and he doesn’t particularly want it. He might find a moment after the Rams (10-6) finish their playoff run, which begins Saturday at Seattle. Maybe the 37-year-old assistant will discuss everything that went so...

John Wolford’s NFL debut started with an interception on his first throw. It ended with the inexperienced quarterback fearlessly leading the Los Angeles Rams back to the playoffs. And though Wolford capably did his part, everybody in the Rams’ jubilant locker room realized they owed this achievement to a dominant defense that scored as many points as the Rams’...

The Seattle Seahawks claimed the NFC West title with a 20-9 win over the Los Angeles Rams on Sunday, with Russell Wilson throwing a 13-yard TD pass to Jacob Hollister with 2:51 left for the clinching score. Seattle earned its first division title since 2016 and its fifth since Pete Carroll arrived in 2010 behind a stellar defensive effort and…

For really the first time since Sean McVay arrived four years ago, the Los Angeles Rams are the laughingstocks of the NFL. The Rams’ 23-20 loss to the winless New York Jets on Sunday was an utter humiliation for a franchise and a coach that have been largely beyond serious reproach since 2017. While Los Angeles hasn’t won a title, it...

The Los Angeles Rams had two players selected to the Pro Bowl on Monday. Defensive lineman Aaron Donald and cornerback Jalen Ramsey were each selected to the NFL’s annual selection of the league’s top players. Wide receiver Keenan Allen and defensive end Joey Bosa were both selected for the LA Chargers. “Congratulations to Jalen [Ramsey] and Aaron [Donald], both...

Sam Darnold passed for 207 yards and the New York Jets finally earned the first victory of their miserable season Sunday, holding on for a 23-20 win that erased the possibility of the third winless 16-game season in NFL history. “This is not the game or the result we expected,” said Rams’ head coach Sean McVay. “But this is why…
