Rams lock in Stafford with a year-long, incentive-heavy extension

Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford and the team agreed to a one-year extension worth a base $55 million (up to $60 million with incentives), keeping the 38-year-old veteran under contract beyond 2026 in a year-to-year arrangement and preventing immediate free agency. Stafford, the 2009 No. 1 overall pick who helped the Rams win a Super Bowl in his first season with L.A., remains in the lineup as the team weighs longer-term options.

Could Burrow’s Career Mirror Stafford’s Super Bowl Route?

Breer’s mailbag surveys a range of topics: Joe Burrow’s potential career path could resemble Matthew Stafford’s, including a move later in his career; Maxx Crosby’s Raiders future and trade value; Elijah Sarratt’s fit for the Ravens; updates on the Seahawks’ sale; why teams value consensus draft boards; flag football contracts; Big Dom’s role with the Eagles; Vikings’ GM search options; Patriots’ hypothetical roster moves (AJ Brown trade, Clowney addition, Gonzalez extension); and the Cowboys’ looming Dak Prescott cap hit plus possible heir planning for 2027.

Stafford Edges Maye in Nail-Biter MVP Race

Matthew Stafford was named NFL MVP in a razor-thin vote over Drake Maye—the closest finish since 2003—after leading the league with 4,707 passing yards and 46 touchdowns with 8 interceptions for a 12-5 Rams and earning first-team All-Pro; Maye led in completion rate and accounted for 35 touchdowns, finishing second with 361 points to Stafford's 366 (24 first-place votes to Maye's 23). Stafford will return for his 18th season in 2026 as the Rams reached the NFC title game and Maye’s Patriots prepare for Super Bowl LX against the Seahawks.

Stafford’s Breakout Season Ends in NFC Championship, MVP Odds Slide

Matthew Stafford capped a league-leading 4,707 passing yards and 46 TDs as the Rams went 12-5, but Los Angeles lost the NFC Championship to Seattle 31-27. The defeat slighted his MVP odds, though he remains a top contender amid a pecking order that Verge from Sam Darnold to Drake Maye in various rankings; Stafford’s performance still keeps him in the MVP conversation for 2025-26.

One Unlucky Play in Seattle Redefines Stafford’s Legacy

Stafford threw for 374 yards and three touchdowns with no turnovers in the NFC Championship, but Seattle won 31-27 after a double-covered Kyren Williams on a crucial fourth-and-4—a “fortuitous bust” that defined the game. The result adds to the paradox of Stafford’s career: elite passer with a Lombardi who may still be haunted by this moment unless he adds another Super Bowl, a tall task at 38 in a crowded NFC West.
