Rams storylines heading into training camp

1.) What happens with Matthew Stafford: The Rams signal-caller still wants a contract adjustment. It is a situation worth monitoring. Stafford is seeking more guaranteed money past the 2024 season. It is unknown if the Rams will be willing to meet him there. Rams head coach Sean McVay has said he expects Stafford to show up to training camp. There has been no hint that a holdout is looming. If Stafford doesn't take the field, Los Angeles can easily lean on  Jimmy Garoppolo moving forward. 

2.) Will Kyren Williams follow up: The breakout 2023 campaign set the bar high for Williams moving into the 2024 training camp. Much of the Rams' success is hinging on him remaining an elite running back. Training camp gives Los Angeles ample time to see if it is getting the 2023 version of Williams or the often-injured 2022 rendition.

3.) Replacing Aaron Donald: Finding a player to fill in the gap for a first-ballot Hall of Famer is hard difficult ask. The Rams will have to do so. The good news is the talent is there. Already the team landed some insurance with Jared Verse and Braden Fiske. Los Angeles also has Kobie Turner and Byron Young on the defensive line. Not it comes down to who will be the player to step up?
