Quarterback Matthew Stafford will miss the second week of the Los Angeles Rams’ training camp to rest his sore back.
The 37-year-old Stafford hasn’t practiced with the Rams since the start of camp last Tuesday at Loyola Marymount University. Coach Sean McVay initially said Stafford would only miss the Rams’ first four practices while recovering from back soreness that had “crept up” in recent weeks.
“I probably spoke a little bit too soon,” McVay said Saturday after the Rams’ fourth practice of camp. “But the ultimate goal is (being ready for Week 1 of the regular season against) Houston and being mindful of that, so we’ll take it a week at a time with him.”
