2025 Season Outlooks

Stafford, 37, is only a sure-fire starter in Superflex/two-QB leagues, but do not be surprised if you find yourself turning to him at some point in one-QB leagues. He has the benefit of throwing to not only Puka Nacua but also Davante Adams and a bevy of interesting tight ends in the Rams' well-schemed passing offense. And while he averaged a meandering 19.1 Fantasy points in 11 games with Nacua and Cooper Kupp last season, there was a seven-week span where he went crazy and averaged 24 Fantasy points. Heck, even in his very last game, in the snow at Philadelphia in the playoffs, Stafford threw for 324 yards and two touchdowns, the equivalent of 23.5 Fantasy points. That's what shrewd Fantasy managers are hoping to see in 2025: a healthier version of the Rams' passing offense for Stafford to reap big numbers with. He'd be a Week 1 streamer if he weren't playing Houston, but Week 2 at Tennessee could be an easy game for him.

Stafford returns for his fifth season in Los Angeles. The 37-year-old continues to play good football (11th in QBR last season), but that hasn't translated to much fantasy success (27th in fantasy PPG last season and his last top-10 season was with Detroit in 2019). Stafford has finished each of the last two seasons just outside the top 10 in attempts, completions, pass yards and pass TDs, while also continuing to offer almost zero with his legs (39.5 rushing yards per season and one total rush TD since joining the Rams). A solid line and elite Puka Nacua/Davante Adams WR duo could help boost Stafford's passing numbers in 2025, but the lack of rushing will limit him to nothing more than a bye-week streamer.
