Rams mostram interesse em Kirk Cousins como reserva de Stafford

O técnico do Los Angeles Rams, Sean McVay, expressou interesse em contratar o veterano quarterback Kirk Cousins como um possível reserva para Matthew Stafford. McVay mencionou conversas recentes com Cousins e seu agente, ao mesmo tempo em que espera renovar com Jimmy Garoppolo. O interesse surge no momento em que os Rams buscam reforçar seu elenco de quarterbacks antes da temporada de 2026.

O Los Angeles Rams conta atualmente com apenas dois quarterbacks no elenco: Matthew Stafford, MVP da NFL, e Stetson Bennett. Na temporada passada, a equipe tinha Jimmy Garoppolo como reserva, mas ele agora é um agente livre explorando opções. Em entrevista a repórteres no dia 30 de março de 2026, McVay afirmou que o time mantém a esperança de um reencontro com Garoppolo, mas também discutiu um possível acordo com Cousins e seu agente, conforme noticiado por Stu Jackson, da cobertura dos Rams, e Mike Florio, da CBS Sports. McVay destacou a influência de Cousins em sua própria trajetória para Los Angeles, acrescentando: 'Kirk é tão influente quanto qualquer um em me ajudar a chegar a L.A. em primeiro lugar... Jimmy e Kirk são caras que eu adoraria ter de volta conosco.'
