Rams Depth Chart Reveals Stetson Bennett as No. 2 QB, Ty Simpson at No. 3
The Los Angeles Rams have unveiled their depth chart for the upcoming Week One, designating Stetson Bennett as the second-string quarterback behind Matthew Stafford, while Ty Simpson holds the third-string position.
Ty Simpson, who was selected as the No. 13 overall pick in the 2026 NFL draft, is currently not in a starting role. Rams coach Sean McVay expressed confidence in both Bennett and Simpson but did not confirm who would serve as Stafford's backup.
Simpson was acquired with the expectation of developing into a long-term solution at quarterback, rather than being an immediate contributor. The Rams envision him as a potential future starter, but for now, he remains behind both Bennett and Stafford on the depth chart.
