The Los Angeles Rams will maintain a cautious training camp strategy for quarterback Matthew Stafford in 2026. After seeing strong results from reduced reps last season, the Rams have decided to implement the same 'load management' tactic. Stafford, who won the NFL MVP award last year, is expected to have a similar limited presence in training camp as the team prioritizes his performance during the season. The Rams believe this approach could set a precedent for how older quarterbacks are managed in future camps.
