Rams QB Ty Simpson’s Contract Holdout | California News
Description
Ty Simpson, the LA Rams’ 13th overall pick, remains unsigned heading into training camp — a rare move in today’s NFL. With a projected $25.4M rookie deal, the delay isn’t about money but contract details like guarantees and clauses. He’s joined by fellow unsigned QB Fernando Mendoza, sparking speculation the Rams are waiting to see how Mendoza’s contract is structured. With camp starting July 25, time is running short — and the Rams clearly want Simpson on the field to develop, especially as he’s seen as Stafford’s future. His agent, Jimmy Sexton (also reps Stafford), adds another layer to the negotiation. This holdout, while uncommon, highlights how even rookie deals can get tangled in fine print.
