Stroud’s Texans Visit Stafford-Led Rams to Open Season in Matchup of Reigning Division Champs

Quarterbacks C.J. Stroud and Matthew Stafford lead their division champion teams, with Stafford nearing 60,000 career passing yards, entering the 2025 NFL season opener.

  • Sunday, the Los Angeles Rams host the Houston Texans at SoFi Stadium, Inglewood, California, Sunday, 4:25 p.m. EDT; C.J. Stroud said `I like his game` about Matthew Stafford on September 3.
  • After missing most of the preseason, Stafford was cleared to start Week 1, limiting shared reps with rookie TE Terrance Ferguson due to his back issue and Ferguson's groin injury.
  • Needing 191 yards to reach 60,000 career passing yards, Matthew Stafford could tie Matt Ryan's games-to-milestone record, while Davante Adams debuts after signing a two-year, $44 million deal.
  • Texans' aggressive front could test Matthew Stafford early, as their plus-10 turnover differential and rookie LT Aireontae Ersery facing Rams OLB Jared Verse offer immediate game edges.
  • Given Stroud's rapid rise and Houston's pass-rush production, C.J. Stroud threw for 3,727 yards with 20 TDs last season, while Will Anderson Jr. and Danielle Hunter led the Houston Texans pass rush with 11 and 12 sacks respectively.
