Stetson Bennett... What. a. throw. ? ?: #DALvsLAR on NFL Network pic.x.com/sewewtog7g

Sean McVay called Jordan Whittington a "mature rookie" after the sixth-round pick had six catches for 74 yards. "He played like a grown man with the ball in his hands [and] did a great job without it," McVay said. "I just really like him. He's going to be a factor for us."

QB Stetson Bennett will play today for the Rams, nearly a year after his last game action. Could he show enough this preseason to earn a chance to succeed Matthew Stafford? nbcsports.com/nfl/profootbal...

Last summer, it was Puka Nacua turning heads in training camp and the preseason, which eventually landed him in the Rams’ starting lineup in Week 1. It seems like Jordan Whittington is the one capturing the hearts of Rams fans everywhere this preseason because he’s already off to a great start.

On the Rams’ opening drive of their first preseason game Sunday, Whittington caught two passes for 43 yards. He caught a nice 13-yard pass from Stetson Bennett over the middle for the quarterback’s first completion of the game, and then he hauled in a 30-yarder in tight coverage later on in the drive

It might only be the preseason, but the Los Angeles Rams will be on the field playing a football game today. They’re hosting the Dallas Cowboys at SoFi Stadium for a 4:30 p.m. ET kickoff in Inglewood, kicking off their three-game preseason slate.

Although the Rams’ starters won’t be playing in this one, this is an important game for their backups and players fighting to make the 53-man roster – players like Stetson Bennett, Zach Evans, Tyler Johnson and Tre Tomlinson.

When players run out of the tunnel, they’ll be rocking the Rams’ sweet white-and-yellow uniforms, a classic look that pays homage to the old-school look that was so wildly popular

Sean McVay plays it very safe in the preseason, keeping his top players out of action until the start of the regular season. That’s typically reserved for proven starters and veterans who have gained a lot of experience in the NFL, but the Rams are giving two of their top rookies that same treatment.

First-rounder Jared Verse and second-round selection Braden Fiske are both inactive in Sunday’s game against the Cowboys, which is the Rams’ preseason opener. McVay is notoriously cautious, but even that is a surprising decision by him

Stetson Bennett was in the midst of a horrendous preseason performance against the Dallas Cowboys on Sunday, throwing four interceptions in what seemed like a sure loss for the Los Angeles Rams. But after a shaky first 57 minutes of the game, he totally redeemed himself in the final 3 minutes.

He led the Rams on a 13-play, 70-yard drive in just 2:48 to win the game, hitting Miller Forristall for a touchdown with only 4 seconds left to win the game against Dallas. It was a terrific play by the second-year quarterback, escaping the pocket to his left and throwing on the run to the tight end who was open in the end zone.
