RUMOR: Matthew Stafford Rumored for Lead Role in Netflix's 'Quarterback' Season 2, Rams QB Gives Intriguing Reply.
Matthew Stafford has addressed the buzzing reports suggesting his upcoming appearance in Netflix's «Quarterback» Season 2. Jake Ellenbogen from SB Nation's Turf Show Times not only hinted at Stafford's participation but also mentioned the commencement of filming, including Stafford being mic'd up during the recent Rams' victory over the Seattle Seahawks.
However, Stafford's clarification on the matter left more questions than answers. «I've had talks with the team behind it,» Stafford mentioned on Wednesday, referencing a conversation with The Athletic's Jourdan Rodrigue. «I'm still in the dark about whether there'll even be a Season 2. But honestly, my current focus is more on facing the San Francisco 49ers than any off-field engagements.»
When further pressed about his involvement if the show does go on, Stafford enigmatically responded with a simple, «Maybe.»
Such a candid exposure would be a fresh perspective on Stafford, diverging from his usually reserved persona. Notably, Peyton Manning recently highlighted the challenges of recruiting quarterbacks for the series.
With a challenging 5-12 record in 2022 and a young roster in 2023, the Rams were predicted to struggle, a notion they countered with an impressive 30-13 triumph over the Seahawks in the season opener.
Despite missing star receiver Cooper Kupp, Stafford was instrumental in the victory, concluding with 24 completions out of 38 attempts, amassing 334 yards. The Rams' total stats boasted 426 yards and 27 first downs.
The competition intensifies in the forthcoming week as the Rams gear up to host the 49ers, with SoFi stadium potentially feeling more like an away game for the Rams.
