Quarterback Matthew Stafford is expected to play for the Los Angeles Rams this weekend after missing one game in the NFL's concussion protocol.
Stafford participated fully in practice with the Rams on Wednesday, and the Super Bowl-winning veteran is on track to come out of the protocol in time to face the Saints in New Orleans on Sunday, coach Sean McVay said.
Stafford is still going through the necessary steps to be cleared from the protocol by Friday, but McVay is proceeding under the assumption Stafford will be ready to retake charge of the Rams' struggling offense, which will be without injured All-Pro receiver Cooper Kupp for at least the next four weeks.
Stafford has completed a career-best 68.4% of his passes this season for 1,928 yards with eight TDs and eight interceptions. If he returns, he will be without his favorite target in Kupp, who needed surgery on a high ankle sprain incurred late in the Rams' loss to Cardinals. The Rams managed just 256 total yards in their third straight defeat, and Wolford went 24 of 36 for 212 yards with one interception and a sole touchdown throw to Van Jefferson with 7 seconds to play.
