The Los Angeles Rams are prepared to rest key starters when they take on the San Francisco 49res this weekend. With Matthew Stafford, Kyren Williams, Ernest Jones, Cooper Kupp, and Aaron Donald on the sidelines, there will be opportunities for others to standout in a way they may normally not be able to.
One of those individuals with the most to gain on Sunday in Santa Clara is QB Carson Wentz, who signed with the Rams mid-season after Brett Rypien failed miserably in replacement of an injured Stafford. Wentz is making his first start as a Ram, which effectively becomes an audition for his home in 2024.
