After everything Matthew Stafford has given the Rams, they need to find a way to adjust his contract and avoid the temptation to pursue a new quarterback.

The Vikings are a fascinating team. Sam Darnold is a pending free agent and Minnesota could choose to keep him after finding success in 2024. They also just drafted J.J. McCarthy in Round 1, so he’s waiting in the wings. But Stafford makes a ton of sense for the Vikings, who have $63 million in cap space.

If the Steelers pursued a trade for Matthew Stafford, the Rams could seek a first-round pick—raising concerns about the cost.
