Ty Simpson is bothering Matthew Stafford, in all the right ways
Is Ty Simpson ready for his NFL debut? He says that’s something he can’t stop thinking about
Los Angeles, California - On August 1, 2026, the Los Angeles Rams welcomed rookie quarterback Ty Simpson to their camp at Loyola Marymount University. As the 13th overall pick, Simpson will have much to prove during the preseason game against the Kansas City Chiefs on Saturday.
Simpson admitted that he “bothers” Matthew Stafford, the starting quarterback, but emphasized that this is a good thing. Stafford, who has won two NFL Championships and 500,000+ career passing yards, could serve as a reminder for Simpson to stay hungry.
Simpson noted that he has not gotten the ample reps that he wants, but he is determined to make the most of his opportunities. "I want to make sure that I get those throws in that they got on the field," Simpson stated. "Not get caught up in just sitting around and not being locked in. I want to be locked in mentally and locked in physically as well."
The Rams will be without key players like Stetson Bennett, who is getting the start, and Matthew Stafford, who will lead the offense. However, Simpson is eager to prove himself and show the NFL what he's made of.
