The Los Angeles Rams have secured Jimmy Garoppolo as their backup quarterback for the 2025 season, but could that decision create tension with Davante Adams?
Garoppolo has re-signed on a one-year, $11 million deal, locking him in as the Rams' primary backup. This move helps solidify their quarterback depth, especially with the expected trade of star receiver Cooper Kupp.
However, this signing comes with potential complications. Adams and Garoppolo have a history from their time with the Las Vegas Raiders, where tensions became public after Adams voiced frustration with Garoppolo’s performance. That frustration ultimately contributed to the quarterback’s benching — a move Adams reportedly supported.
As the Rams prepare for the upcoming season, all eyes will be on how Adams and Garoppolo navigate their history. Can they put aside past frustrations and work together, or will old conflicts resurface? Fans and analysts will be watching closely.
