Matthew Stafford who has amassed over 2k passing yards with 8 TDs, started the game well and also scored a TD. However, he soon injured his thumb when the first half was about to culminate, giving a scare to the Rams. Stafford was taken off the field and did not return to the things of play.
Stafford was replaced by Brett Rypien in the third quarter of the game but the Rams are looking for another replacement for the side in the longer run. Although there is no information on when Stafford will be back, the Rams are not ruling out injured reserves. Dov Kleiman on X shared a post and addressed what the Rams are planning to do.

According to the post, the Rams are planning a trade with the Buccaneers to get QB John Wolford off their practice squad for the backup. While the news is not confirmed, and even Kleiman sourced it to others, the replacement seems right on point, with the side needing a more permanent answer to their offensive questions in the absence of their Quarterback.
The Rams have to buckle up fast
With the injury, the Rams might even be able to solve their impending issues on the field and finally get back to winning ways. However, the new addition does raise queries about how will matters go ahead once Stafford makes his return.
