Episode Details

The Los Angeles Rams are working to retain Matthew Stafford for the 2026 season, with both parties aware that sticking together maximizes their chances of another championship. Stafford, who has an MVP trophy and a fresh $40 million investment, is seeking a one-year, $50 million extension, which would make him the 10th highest-paid quarterback. His camp counters with a $60 million offer, aiming for a $55 million new cash deal to secure strong 2027 money and avoid future negotiations. The Rams GM, Les Snead, has proposed a one-year, $50 million extension, turning it into an effective two-year, $90 million total. Both sides are aware of the sweet spot around $55 million in new cash, and talks are merely timing the inevitable agreement.
