Matthew Stafford News
Tuesday, March 3, 11:02 AM
When asked about quarterback Matthew Stafford's contract status as he enters the final year of his deal in 2026, Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay said, "We've had great dialogue... We'll work through all of those things." Stafford signed a two-year, $84 million contract with the Rams in May of last year before proceeding to win 2025 MVP honors in his 17th season in the league. The three-time Pro Bowler just turned 38 years old, though, and he's essentially playing on a year-to-year basis after contemplating retirement this offseason. Still, L.A. can afford to give Stafford a raise after he threw for a league-high 4,707 yards and 46 touchdowns in 17 regular-season games on 597 attempts. Staying healthy for another full season will probably be Stafford's biggest challenge in 2026, but if he's on the field, he should put up big numbers again with an amazing WR duo in Puka Nacua and Davante Adams.

Sean Mannion News
Thursday, January 29, 5:48 PM
The Philadelphia Eagles are hiring Green Bay Packers quarterbacks coach Sean Mannion as their new offensive coordinator, according to Ian Rapoport of the NFL Network. The 33-year-old was drafted in the third round in 2015, and he spent four years with the Rams, three seasons with the Vikings, and one year with the Seattle Seahawks. In 14 career appearances, he made three starts and threw for 573 yards, one touchdown, and three picks. Mannion got his coaching start in the NFL as an offensive assistant under Packers head coach Matt LaFleur, and he was promoted to QBs coach in 2025. He's credited with the development of backup Malik Willis in Green Bay, and now he'll be asked to help fix an Eagles offense that went stagnant in 2025. It's unclear if head coach Nick Sirianni will leave Mannion in charge of play-calling duties.
