Will Matthew Stafford Ever Get His Statuesque Moment?

In an interesting turn of events, Todd Gurley recently shared his thoughts on the likelihood of Matthew Stafford receiving a statue outside SoFi Stadium, and spoiler alert: it’s not looking good. Gurley, a former Rams star, highlighted the unique situation of sharing the stadium with the Chargers, which throws a wrench into the whole“honoring players with statues”concept. Apparently, both teams would want to claim such an honor for their respective stars, and no one wants to start a statue war in Inglewood!

As if that wasn’t enough, Gurley suggested a more fitting spot for Stafford’s statue might actually be the Rams Village at Warner Center. It sounds like a great idea—after all, the Rams headquarters is right there. Meanwhile, despite Stafford’s impressive stats this season, including leading the league with 4,707 passing yards and 46 touchdowns, he still has some work to do if he wants to see his likeness immortalized in bronze. Imagine that: all those amazing throws, yet no statue! I guess he’ll need to bring home a trophy, or better yet, a couple of them, to solidify his claim to fame.
