The Los Angeles Rams made an unexpected move in the 2026 NFL Draft, selecting rookie quarterback Ty Simpson with the No. 13 overall pick.
Simpson will serve as the Rams' backup quarterback behind reigning NFL MVP Matthew Stafford, who's entering his 18th professional season as a 38-year-old veteran signal caller.
According to Simpson, Stafford has been an excellent mentor as the 2026 season quickly approaches.
“It’s the same thing I did in college, except it’s a different level,” Simpson said during a conversation with Taylor Lewan. “I’ve learned more ball in the last four months of being with him than I had in four years of being in college. He’s just so, like, cerebral. Just understands and he’s so smart with everything.
"It’s so cool. I appreciate him so much because he’s been nothing but nice to me.”
Simpson led the SEC in competitions as quarterback of the Alabama Crimson Tide in 2025, recording 3,567 yards, 28 touchdowns and five interceptions in his lone campaign as a college football starter. He spent his first three seasons as a backup option for the program.
The Rams are one of the leading favorites to contend for a Super Bowl title this upcoming season. The team will open up its 2026 regular-season schedule with a Week 1 matchup against the San Francisco 49ers on Sept. 10.
