Rams QB Matthew Stafford leaves practice with Cowboys early because of hamstring tightness

Associated Press  

OXNARD, Calif. — Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford came out of a joint practice with the Dallas Cowboys on Wednesday early because of hamstring tightness, a team spokesman said. Unfortunately, he had some tightness.” Jimmy Garoppolo worked with the first-team offense in Stafford’s absence, which is valuable because Garoppolo did not play in the preseason opener against the Cowboys on Sunday and is unlikely to do so in the two remaining exhibition games. Stetson Bennett took Garoppolo’s snaps with the backups three days after he threw four interceptions before leading a last-minute touchdown drive against the Cowboys. Coach Sean McVay said Tuesday that Bennett would need to show “more body of work” after being away from the team last season to focus on his mental health to secure the No.
