  • Ty Simpson said the Rams' quarterback room has been "super, super fun," calling time with veteran starter Matthew Stafford a major part of his early NFL transition.
  • The No. 13 overall pick said he is also studying receivers Davante Adams and Puka Nacua in film sessions, treating their habits and route work as a development advantage.
