Team news: Los Angeles Rams

DeSean Jackson to the #Rams, source says.

The Rams let Josh Reynolds walk and replaced him with Jackson. The move caps Van Jefferson's upside whenever Jackson is healthy. If being "injury-prone" is a thing, potential drafters should have serious questions about Jackson's ability to stay on the field. Since his age-30 season, Jackson has played 15, 14, 12, 3 and 5 games in the last five seasons. Rams HC Sean McVay was the OC in Washington from 2014-2016, when Jackson posted receiving lines of 56-1169-6 (in 15 games), 30-528-4 (in nine games) and 56-1005-4 (in 15 games). That last line was from his age-30 season, so it was several injuries ago. A game-changer when healthy, Jackson is worthy of a late-round pick in best ball formats but is likely to hit the waiver wire in redraft leagues.

Roster Move: #Eagles have released WR DeSean Jackson.

Since returning to Philly in 2019, Desean Jackson posted just 23 catches for 395 yards and three touchdowns in eight contests. Despite being often injured, the 13-year veteran should still find a home as a deep threat fill-in.

Detroit is dealing QB Matthew Stafford to the Los Angeles Rams in exchange for two future first-round picks, a third-round pick and QB Jared Goff, per sources. Two former No. 1 overall picks trading places in the first blockbuster NFL trade of 2021.

We have our first domino falling in the QB realm for 2021. Both Matthew Stafford and Jared Goff inherit some talented weapons in their respective offenses.

The [Stafford] interest is significant. Expect a trade before the Super Bowl.

According to Dan Campbell, trade talks have gotten "hot and heavy", so a trade is likely imminent in order for all parties to move forward. Interest has been linked to the Rams (but they have cap issues with Jared Goff), 49ers, Colts, Football Team and Patriots, among others.

The #Lions are expected to hire Mark Brunell as their quarterbacks coach, source said. Another former NFL player joining Dan Campbell’s staff, and a key mentor for Matthew Stafford's successor.

Sources: The #Lions and Matthew Stafford have mutually agreed to part ways this offseason and the team will begin exploring trade options in the coming weeks for their star QB.

Rams Inactives
C Brian Allen
OG David Edwards
WR Trishton Jackson
WR Cooper Kupp
LB Terrell Lewis
QB John Wolford

Rams HC Sean McVay said:
John Wolford has a “stinger, he'll be day-to-day”
Aaron Donald has a rib injury and “I don't expect that to affect his game status for this week.”
WR Cooper Kupp has bursitis of his knee and “the hope is to have him ready to go.”

Cooper Kupp is dealing with bursitis, which is inflammation or irritation of the sac near the knee joint. If Kupp can't go this week against Green Bay, Van Jefferson and Josh Reynolds should see an uptick in usage.
