The Los Angeles Rams are playing it close to the chest with quarterback Matthew Stafford’s current health situation. The 37-year-old veteran is dealing with back soreness and has now missed his second straight week of training camp. When asked about Stafford’s status, head coach Sean McVay didn’t offer much clarity.

Sean McVay won't publicly share the Rams' timetable for Matthew Stafford's return, but he remains "very confident" the QB will play Week 1.

McVay noted last week that Stafford did not suffer a setback but rather that he should have initially labeled his status as week-to-week. The coach said back soreness is something

ESPN's Peter Schrager shared his intel on the issue during a recent episode of The Pat McAfee Show. The NFL insider revealed that the Rams aren't worried that Stafford could miss Week 1 and that the team is just being cautious with their veteran starting quarterback.

But in an ironic twist, when fans were prepared to see Matthew Stafford in pads leading the offense, he was nowhere to be found. Stafford's status was updated to 'week to week,' and fans were reassured that this was not a downgrade.
