Sean McVay: Aaron Rodgers to Rams was 'a possibility'

June 12 - Aaron Rodgers finally ended up with the Pittsburgh Steelers after a long flirtation, but the star quarterback nearly had another offseason suitor. Los Angeles Rams coach Sean McVay acknowledged on Wednesday that his team considered making a play for Rodgers before sticking with Matthew Stafford. Speaking with NFL Media, McVay said, "Our first priority, which was consistently communicated, was, 'Hey, let's work out something with Matthew,' and we were very fortunate that it worked out that way. "If that wasn't able to occur, then (pursuing Rodgers) was definitely conversations and a possibility for us. I have a ton of respect for the body of work, and I've gotten to know Aaron and enjoy the conversations and just the approach -- the way that he thinks about the game and in life. That was a possibility." McVay added of Rodgers landing with the Steelers, "I'm really glad that worked out. I know there's a lot of people in Pittsburgh that are really excited that's come to fruition, and I'm a big fan of his." The Rams and Stafford agreed to a new contract in early May that will pay the 37-year-old veteran $44 million in 2025, and he would get $40 million if he sticks with the club in 2026. Stafford, who led the Rams to the Super Bowl championship after the 2021 season, owns a 34-23 record after Los Angeles' starter after going 74-90-1 as the Detroit Lions' starter from 2009-20. Rodgers, 41, also has one Super Bowl ring, from the 2010 season with the Green Bay Packers. The four-time NFL Most Valuable Player landed a one-year deal in Pittsburgh that reportedly will pay him $13.65 million, including a $10 million guarantee. Rodgers owns a 153-87-1 record as a starter with the Packers (2005-22) and New York Jets (2023-24). --Field Level Media

Field Of Gold on course for 'round two' with Ruling Court

The Clarehaven hotshot suffered defeat at Newmarket to Charlie Appleby's Justify colt – who was a late withdrawal from the Derby due to rain-softened ground – but gained Classic redemption in sublime style at the Curragh last month. 'Round two with Ruling Court is exciting and is what Royal Ascot is all about. There will be a fabulous line-up of horses in a lot of races,' said Gosden, who watched some of his team for the Royal meeting work on Newmarket's July course on Wednesday morning. Some performance from Field Of Gold 👏 🥇#ITVRacing — ITV Racing (@itvracing) May 24, 2025 'There was no need for him to come and have a gallop today as he's only just run in the Irish 2,000 Guineas, but he's fine and heading to the St James's Palace.' Having followed in the footsteps of his sire Kingman almost symmetrically to this point, Gosden is now hoping he can replicate his father once again by scoring in a blockbuster opening-day clash also contains Aidan O'Brien's Poule d'Essai des Poulains champion Henri Matisse. However, to do so the long-striding grey could need the draw gods to shine favourably and Gosden continued: 'We will have to see how the race works out and you have to take a good look at the draw haven't you over the mile at Ascot. RULING COURT strikes in the @Betfred 2000 Guineas! — Racing TV (@RacingTV) May 3, 2025 'If you're drawn on the inside you might never see daylight and we'll see how that draw goes and take things from there.' Gosden, who has won the St James's Palace Stakes three times among his 66 Royal Ascot winners, also gave his backing to Colin Keane, who was on the July course assisting in preparations after securing the prime position of Juddmonte retained jockey ahead of the summer's showpiece meeting. The six-time Irish champion stepped in aboard Field Of Gold when the colt scorched to Irish 2,000 Guineas glory and although it was Queen Anne Stakes hope Lead Artist instead of the his Classic hero that he partnered in Wednesday morning work, Gosden hailed the 30-year-old's class in the saddle. In a morning of Queen Anne contenders, Lead Artist and Colin Keane stride out on the July Course — Adam Morgan (@Adam_Morgs) June 11, 2025 'He's a very talented jockey and horseman and an extremely nice fellow,' explained Gosden. 'The travelling will be demanding, but I'm sure he will fit in well once he gets to know all the horses. I think if you travel regularly on Ryanair you might be seeing him. He'll be over plenty riding work as well as at the races and he's come over today especially. 'He's a classy jockey and you're not six-time Irish champion without being at the top of your game as racing over there is tough and no one gives a quarter to anyone. So to that extent he is very talented and it's an exciting opportunity for him.' As well as Ruling Court, Appleby has Guineas third Shadow Of Light and Opera Ballo in contention, while Juddmonte can also call on the Andrew Balding-trained pair of Jonquil and Windlord. O'Brien also has a total of three contenders, with First Wave and Officer still in the mix alongside Henri Matisse, as Rashabar (Brian Meehan) and Scorthy Champ (Joseph O'Brien) complete the 11-strong list.
