The Los Angeles Rams have made a decision on who will back up Matthew Stafford in the first two weeks of the season while Jimmy Garoppolo is suspended. Before Saturday’s preseason game, Sean McVay said Stetson Bennett will be the No. 2 quarterback in Weeks 1 and 2, earning a spot on the initial 53-man roster.
Bennett played every snap in each of the Rams’ first two preseason games but he ceded the starting quarterback spot to Dresser Winn for the finale against the Texans on Saturday.
There’s no question Bennett struggled in his two preseason starts, throwing five interceptions and only two touchdown passes, but the Rams don’t have a better option at backup quarterback. Fortunately, Garoppolo’s suspension is only two games so he’ll reclaim his spot as the No. 2 QB when he returns in Week 3.
On the ABC7 broadcast, Sean McVay said Dresser Winn will start today's preseason finale against the Texans and that Stetson Bennett will be the Rams' backup QB for Weeks 1 and 2 while Jimmy Garoppolo serves his suspension.
