This is what ESPN NFL insider Dan Graziano predicts will happen with Stafford and the Rams.

Practicing Tuesday for the second consecutive day after missing the first four weeks with an aggravated disc in his back, Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford again looked like himself.

McVay isn’t talking like a coach who is out of the woods by any means, noting that the team will “continue to hope that he’s able to stack days” and that “backs can be a volatile thing”.

The Rams could trade for Richardson this upcoming offseason, and have him learn under Stafford before giving him a bump in pay to be the starter in 2027 -- when he turns 27. Sean McVay is an offensive mind that has gotten the most out of all his quarterbacks. Richardson could be the next one.
