As Matthew Stafford‘s back injury lingers, and his return date grows more uncertain, the Los Angeles Rams are taking no chances with their thin quarterback room. For the second straight week, Stetson Bennett IV went the distance. And for the second straight week, he looked good doing so.
While three turnover-worthy plays stained Bennett's stat line — 28-of-40 passing for 324 yards and three touchdowns — his final drive was all that mattered. With just under a minute and a half remaining in the game, he marched the Rams down the field for a game-winning touchdown against the Los Angeles Chargers, leaving just 5 seconds on the clock.
The 23-22 score moved the Rams to 2-0 this preseason with Bennett under center. It remains to be seen whether his services will be needed in the regular season.
The Chargers got an excellent effort out of rookie wideout Tre Harris, who secured all six of his catchable targets (eight total) for 85 yards.
