As good as Matthew Stafford is playing quarterback, it turns out that’s his second-best talent.
That’s saying something, considering the Rams’ star quarterback is one of the greatest throwers of the football that ever laced up a pair of cleats. He’s a Super Bowl champion, a perennial MVP candidate coming off hisfirst MVP awardon his 37th trip around the sun, and the example young quarterbacks aspire to emulate.
Nevertheless, it all takes a back seat to his true gift.
When it comes to deal-making and ruthless negotiating, Stafford is right up there with JP Morgan.
He pulled off yet another art of the deal on Thursday, agreeing to histhird contract extension with the Ramssince arriving in Los Angeles in 2021. This one will pump an additional $55 million into his bank account, raising his earnings over the next two years to $105 million, assuming he hits the incentives written into the deal.
That is on top of the $408 million he’s already earned over his illustrious career, including the $189,000,000 the Rams have already paid him.
Well, first off, he’s arguably the best quarterback in the game. At the very least, he’s among the top three.
And since arriving in Los Angeles in 2021, he’s provided the Rams with a caliber of play that perennially puts them inSuper Bowl contention.
Combined with the elite roster the Rams continually churn out and their lust for winning — which starts at the very top with owner Stan Kroenke — as determined and ruthless a negotiator and competitor as Stafford is, he rightfully and brilliantly feeds off the Rams’ desire to dominate everything and everyone.
