While Stafford\u2019s absence is being described as precautionary, the team is closely monitoring his condition as the preseason progresses.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Garoppolo, who joined the Rams earlier this year, has been working with the first-team offense and getting valuable reps as the team prepares for the 2025 season. Head coach Sean McVay has made it clear that Stafford remains the team\u2019s starting quarterback, but Garoppolo\u2019s experience and steady presence are providing stability while the veteran recovers. The Rams are hopeful Stafford will return soon, but for now, Garoppolo is the man guiding the offense through camp.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>With Matthew Stafford temporarily sidelined due to back soreness, the Los Angeles Rams have turned to Jimmy Garoppolo to take over quarterback duties during training camp.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":2636,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[19],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2635","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-sports"],"acf":[],"rttpg_featured_image_url":{"full":["https:\/\/theamshift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/jimmyg.webp",958,639,false],"landscape":["https:\/\/theamshift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/jimmyg.webp",958,639,false],"portraits":["https:\/\/theamshift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/jimmyg.webp",958,639,false],"thumbnail":["https:\/\/theamshift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/jimmyg-150x150.webp",150,150,true],"medium":["https:\/\/theamshift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/jimmyg-300x200.webp",300,200,true],"large":["https:\/\/theamshift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/jimmyg.webp",640,427,false],"1536x1536":["https:\/\/theamshift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/jimmyg.webp",958,639,false],"2048x2048":["https:\/\/theamshift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/jimmyg.webp",958,639,false],"digital-newspaper-featured":["https:\/\/theamshift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/jimmyg.webp",958,639,false],"digital-newspaper-list":["https:\/\/theamshift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/jimmyg-600x400.webp",600,400,true],"digital-newspaper-thumb":["https:\/\/theamshift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/jimmyg-300x200.webp",300,200,true],"digital-newspaper-small":["https:\/\/theamshift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/jimmyg-150x95.webp",150,95,true],"digital-newspaper-grid":["https:\/\/theamshift.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/jimmyg-400x250.webp",400,250,true]},"rttpg_author":{"display_name":"admin","author_link":"https:\/\/theamshift.com\/?author=1"},"rttpg_comment":0,"rttpg_category":"<a href=\"https:\/\/theamshift.com\/?cat=19\" rel=\"category\">Sports<\/a>","rttpg_excerpt":"With Matthew Stafford temporarily sidelined due to back soreness, the Los Angeles Rams have turned to Jimmy Garoppolo to take over quarterback duties during training camp.","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/theamshift.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2635","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/theamshift.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/theamshift.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theamshift.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theamshift.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcomments&post=2635"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/theamshift.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2635\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2637,"href":"https:\/\/theamshift.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2635\/revisions\/2637"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theamshift.com\/index.php?rest_route=\/wp\/v2\/media\/2636"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/theamshift.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fmedia&parent=2635"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theamshift.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Fcategories&post=2635"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/theamshift.com\/index.php?rest_route=%2Fwp%2Fv2%2Ftags&post=2635"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
