Everybody loves a rags-to-riches story, especially if it is sports-related. LA Rams backup quarterback John Wolford is one horrendous play away of starring in that Hollywood role. He is the leading candidate to become the LA Rams backup quarterback for the 2020 NFL season.
His story is a familiar saga. The star high school quarterback gets a scholarship to play college quarterback at an ACC school, Wake Forest. Wolford took control of the team as a freshman and never looked back.
In college, he completed 761 passes for 8,794 yards with 59 touchdowns.
