Stafford worked out on Saturday and looked good throwing 60 passes, but Coach Sean McVay says the veteran continues to feel soreness in his back.

Los Angeles Rams QB Matthew Stafford’s back injury kept the 37-year-old out of practice Monday, despite expectations that he was set to get his first action of the preseason.

McVay has repeatedly downplayed the severity of Stafford’s latest injury, claiming the quarterback could play in games if the Rams were in the regular season. McVay stepped back slightly from that stance Monday, saying: “I don’t know that. I think he still probably would be able to play it, just based on how he feels.”
