Rams offense struggles without Stafford, defense shows strength in training camp
Summary

The Los Angeles Rams training camp resumed on August 6, 2026, following a day off. The offense performed poorly without Matthew Stafford and Davante Adams, leading to multiple pre-snap penalties and an ineffective quarterback duo of Bennett and Simpson. Meanwhile, the defense shone, particularly Braden Fiske and Omar Speights, who made significant plays. Cam Lampkin is emerging as a contender for the WR3 position, and Grant Stuard showcased his ability as a backup linebacker and special teams player.
