Rams acknowledge Matthew Stafford has asked for more guarantees in contract

Rams general manager Les Snead and coach Sean McVay on Friday confirmed a report that quarterback Matthew Stafford wants his contract adjusted to include guaranteed salary beyond this season. “We’ve discussed those things,” McVay said after the second day of the NFL draft. Stafford has two additional years left on the extension he signed in 2022 after leading the Rams to a Super Bowl title, but the salaries of $27 million and $26 million are not guaranteed, according to the website. “There’s nothing that’s more important than making sure that he feels appreciated and he knows how much we love him and want him to lead the way and, you know, I think that the commitment that I think he wants to have can be reciprocated and we want to work toward figuring that out.” Stafford was sidelined for eight games in 2022 because of a concussion and a spinal bruise.
