    John Wolford Removed From Injury Report

    Los Angeles Rams quarterback John Wolford (neck) wasn't listed on the team's first injury report of Week 18 on Wednesday. The 27-year-old hasn't practiced and missed the last three weeks due to a neck injury. He is trending in the right direction toward suiting up for Sunday's game against the Seahawks. The Wake Forest product will be the backup to Rams starting quarterback Baker Mayfield for Week 18. Wolford has thrown for 390 yards, one touchdown, and three interceptions across three games in 2022 while filling in for the injured Matthew Stafford (neck).

    John Wolford Declared Out For Week 16

    Los Angeles Rams quarterback John Wolford (neck) has been ruled out for a Week 16 matchup against the Denver Broncos. Wolford last suited up in Week 13, playing the first drive before ceding the rest of the game to newcomer Baker Mayfield. With Wolford inactive, Bryce Perkins will serve as the backup to Mayfield on Sunday as the former first-overall pick will start a second consecutive contest for the Rams.

    John Wolford Officially Out For Week 15

    Los Angeles Rams quarterback John Wolford (neck) has been ruled out for the Week 15 matchup against the Green Bay Packers. This doesn't come as a shock considering Wolford wasn't expected to suit up for this game. The 27-year-old played the first drive during last week's game before handing off the quarterback duties to Baker Mayfield. The expectation is that Mayfield will start Monday Night against the Packers. There's a good chance that Mayfield will be the starter for the rest of the season.

    John Wolford Not Expected To Play In Week 15

    Los Angeles Rams quarterback John Wolford (neck) is not expected to suit up for the Week 15 matchup against the Green Bay Packers on Monday night, according to head coach Sean McVay. The 27-year-old played the first drive in Week 14 before handing off the quarterback duties to Baker Mayfield. It sounds like the Rams feel comfortable with having Mayfield under center for the rest of the season. He's expected to draw the start against the Packers on Monday night. Rookie Bryce Perkins is expected to be the backup behind Mayfield with Wolford likely sidelined.

    John Wolford Looks Likely To Start Thursday Night

    Los Angeles Rams quarterback John Wolford (neck) is under center with the starting offense during pre-game drills on Thursday night, so it looks like he'll get the start over Baker Mayfield against the Las Vegas Raiders. Wolford was questionable coming into this one with an injury, but he's active and will at least start the game for the Rams. But this will only be Wolford's seventh NFL game and fourth career start. Even though Mayfield was just claimed off waivers from the Carolina Panthers on Tuesday, he apparently already has a good grasp of the playbook and figures to get into this game if Wolford struggles at all. With Matthew Stafford (concussion, neck) basically done for the year on Injured Reserve, Mayfield could run with the job the rest of the way. Rookie Bryce Perkins is also active and will be the No. 3 on Thursday.

    John Wolford, Baker Mayfield Active For Week 14

    Los Angeles Rams quarterback John Wolford (neck) is active for the Week 14 matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders. The 27-year-old was questionable coming into this game after being limited during practice this week. It sounds like Wolford is feeling good enough to play, but it's unclear if he'll start. The Rams have also mentioned that Bryce Perkins and newly acquired Baker Mayfield are also active for this game. They haven't announced which quarterback is going to be under center for this contest. Regardless, this isn't an ideal streaming situation for fantasy managers anyway.

    John Wolford A Game-Time Decision

    The Los Angeles Rams want to go through pre-game warmups on Thursday night to see how quarterback John Wolford (neck) is doing before they decide on who will start under center. Wolford got in some limited practices this week, but he's questionable to play against the Las Vegas Raiders. If Wolford isn't healthy enough to play, recently acquired Baker Mayfield would be in line to start after just being claimed off waivers from the Carolina Panthers on Tuesday. Wolford played through his neck injury last week and went 14-for-26 for 178 yards, no touchdowns and two interceptions in just his third career start. Matthew Stafford (concussion, neck) is on Injured Reserve and is effectively done for the season. Fantasy managers should be looking to avoid the Rams' QB situation in Week 14 altogether.

    John Wolford Questionable To Face Raiders

    Los Angeles Rams quarterback John Wolford (neck) is listed as questionable to play on Thursday night against the Las Vegas Raiders in Week 14. Wolford played through his neck issue in the Week 13 loss to the Seattle Seahawks and went 14-for-26 for 178 yards, no touchdowns and two interceptions in just his third NFL start. The Raiders defense shouldn't scare anyone, but they'll be a popular streaming choice for fantasy managers this week, even if Wolford is active. The Rams claimed Baker Mayfield off waivers on Tuesday, but with such little time to learn the playbook, it's unlikely he'd get the start on Thursday over Bryce Perkins if Wolford is unable to play. Wolford will be a desperation QB2 in superflex leagues if he makes the start.

    John Wolford Limited Tuesday

    Los Angeles Rams quarterback John Wolford (neck) was estimated as a limited participant in his team's walkthrough on Tuesday. Wolford is dealing with a sore neck and is being called day-to-day ahead of his team's Thursday night matchup against the Las Vegas Raiders. If Wolford is unable to start, the Rams could turn to the newly-signed Baker Mayfield, who they picked up off of waivers on Tuesday afternoon. Wolford will not be a recommended fantasy option in Week 14 even if he does feel good enough to suit up.

    John Wolford Returns To Full Practice

    Los Angeles Rams quarterback John Wolford (neck) was listed as a full practice participant on Thursday's estimated report. Wolford was limited in Wednesday's practice. Bryce Perkins took the first-team repetitions on Wednesday with Matthew Stafford (concussion, neck) being ruled out for Week 12 against the Kansas City Chiefs. But with Wolford suddenly looking healthy, it remains to be seen if the Rams will go with Perkins or Wolford under center against the Chiefs. Either way, Perkins or Wolford would be desperation low-end QB2 options for fantasy managers in superflex leagues. If Perkins gets the nod, it will be his first career start in the NFL. He's still the best bet to start for LA this weekend.

    John Wolford Making Progress

    Los Angeles Rams quarterback John Wolford (neck) is "trending in the right direction," head coach Sean McVay told the media. The 27-year-old was inactive against the New Orleans Saints on Sunday, meaning third-string quarterback Bryce Perkins took command of the offense when Matthew Stafford (concussion) exited the game. With Stafford's availability very much in doubt for Week 12, we could see Wolford start against the Kansas City Chiefs, assuming he's healthy.

    John Wolford Questionable Against Bengals

    Los Angeles Rams quarterback John Wolford (finger) is questionable for Saturday's preseason matchup against Cincinnati. According to head coach Sean McVay, the 26-year-old ripped the fingernail off his thumb and was having trouble gripping a football. Wolford, who currently owns the No. 2 spot on the depth chart behind Matthew Stafford, may not see the field again until the regular season. If that's the case, Bryce Perkins, who's played well this preseason, could be in store for plenty of work throughout the Super Bowl rematch.
