Travis Rodgers· Feb 28, 2026
Rodgers said the Rams should extend Warren McClendon Jr. and expects them still to address tackle in the draft, though probably not with one of their first-round picks; he also predicted Matthew Stafford will play at least one more season and would not be surprised by a two-year extension.
“I think that, you know, you're gonna get at least one more year, and and I wouldn't be surprised if there's a multiple year deal coming his way before two.”
