During the NFL Hall of Fame Game, Carson Beck of the Arizona Cardinals excelled, completing 15 of 19 passes for 188 yards and a touchdown. This performance puts pressure on Ty Simpson, the Los Angeles Rams quarterback, who was drafted earlier than Beck. Rams coach Sean McVay has yet to outline the quarterback rotation for the upcoming exhibition games, but Simpson may see increased playtime if Matthew Stafford continues to rest.
