Matthew Stafford suffered ankle sprain vs. Saints but is not expected to miss time

Matthew Stafford has been hit a lot this season and it seems the wear and tear has caught up with the 36-year-old Iron Man. Sean McVay told reporters on Monday that Stafford suffered a lateral ankle sprain in the teams’ victory over New Orleans on Sunday.

Stafford’s standard week of preparation will not be affected as the Rams are set to host the red-hot Buffalo Bills at SoFi Stadium in a rematch of the 2022 NFL season opener.

As of writing, Stafford will be a full go for the game but his injury and how it affects his mobility will be something to keep an eye on. The Rams have surrendered 25 QB hits in their last four games.

The last time the Bills played in a domed environment, their defense put up six QB hits, four sacks, and forced four turnovers in a 30-20 win over a Joe Flacco-led Colts team.

The Bills are coming off a 35-10 thrashing in the snow against the 49ers on Sunday night. Buffalo is 3-0 against the NFC West this season as they defeated Arizona 34-28 in the season opener and won 31-10 at Seattle in Week 8.
