Matthew Stafford Injured Sunday, Replaced By Brett Rypien

one year ago

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford (right thumb) went to the locker room and was replaced by Brett Rypien during the third quarter of Week 8 versus the Dallas Cowboys. Stafford initially injured himself at the end of the first half, and although he returned to lead a touchdown drive at the start of the second half, it appears the injury continues to bother him. The Rams haven't provided an update on his status, but the bottom line is that Stafford is out of the game and Rypien has entered in his place. At the time of his departure, Stafford had completed 13 of 22 passes for 162 yards, one touchdown, and one interception.
