Matthew Stafford practices with Rams in QB's first team workout of preseason
LOS ANGELES (AP) — Matthew Stafford practiced with the Los Angeles Rams on Monday, marking the quarterback's first workout with the team this preseason after having been unable to do so because of a sore back. Stafford, 37, took first-team reps during the session and did not speak to reporters afterward. Coach Sean McVay said it was too soon to know what the session means for Stafford's status going forward. 'I think that would be putting the cart way before the horse,' McVay said. 'I thought he did a good job today, and we had 26 plays of team (with Stafford), and (he) did a really nice job of managing the huddle. I thought he saw the field well. I thought he went where the balls would go, and there's some good competitive work on both sides today.' McVay has repeatedly declined to put any timeline on Stafford's availability, doing so again on Monday, after having initially said in July his starting quarterback would miss the first part of training camp. The Rams open the regular season on Sept. 7 by hosting the Houston Texans. 'I'm not going to pigeonhole myself into any plans,' McVay said. 'And so we're just really seeing how he feels. We're really taking it a day at a time and a week at a time right now.' While McVay said he was treating Monday's practice as another day, teammates were visibly excited to have the veteran going into his 17th season on the field. Stafford has led the team into the playoffs in three of his four seasons in Los Angeles, including winning the Super Bowl in the 2021 season. 'I think this group brings energy every day. I think that certainly was something that guys felt good about. Like, what I want to make sure is, let's just take it a day at a time. This represents a great opportunity that he wanted to be out there and do what he did today, and then we'll see what tomorrow really takes.' ___ AP NFL:

New NFL crocs look cozy but have have 1 major flaw
The NFL has announced a multiyear licensing deal with the footwear company Crocs, which should allow for some comfortable Sunday viewing sessions. Many sports fans and players, including Dallas Wings rookie Paige Bueckers, enjoy wearing Crocs. Earlier this year, Las Vegas Raiders rookie Ashton Jeanty showed up to the 2025 NFL Draft wearing the crystal-covered clogs. 'The Crocs brand has made a significant impact on footwear culture with their shoes becoming synonymous with ease and comfort,' said Ryan Samuelson, vice president of consumer products at the NFL. 'Collaborating with Crocs allows us to give fans expanded gameday options that will keep them stylishly comfortable for gameday and every day.' The original release, which will drop on September 18 for $84.99, will feature 14 NFL teams. The initial line includes the Kansas City Chiefs, Philadelphia Eagles, Detroit Lions, San Francisco 49ers, Pittsburgh Steelers, Chicago Bears, Buffalo Bills, Las Vegas Raiders, Dallas Cowboys, Miami Dolphins, Minnesota Vikings, Cincinnati Bengals, Houston Texans, and Denver Broncos. Many of them look normal and inoffensive and seem perfectly suited for a casual hang: Some of them, like the pair for the Cowboys, look fairly normal. But the attached Jibbitz™ charms for the Bears, Bills, and Vikings are a bit more odd. These shoes should not have horns! Aside from aesthetic issues, that would make it quite difficult to walk. Similarly, the shoes for the Bears should not have claws. That was a bold decision that isn't working. If these are detachable, there's less of an issue. But if this is a permanent part of the shoe, it's a glaring problem for anyone who hopes to take themselves seriously.

Colts coach weighs in on Indianapolis signing CB Xavien Howard
Colts' DC Lou Anarumo weighs in on the team signing former All-Pro cornerback Xavien Howard. As the Indianapolis Colts continue to navigate injuries at cornerback, the team is signing former All-Pro Xavien Howard to boost their depth at the position. Current Colts' defensive coordinator Lou Anarumo is familiar with Howard. A second overall pick by Miami in 2016, Anarumo was Howard's defensive backs coach for his first two NFL seasons and part of the pre-draft evaluation process. The thing about Howard's game that has stood out the most to Anarumo is his ball production. After not logging an interception as a rookie, Howard tallied 29 of them between the 2017 and 2023 seasons. He's also forced 95 pass deflections in his career. "Well, I know X from his college days," Anarumo said on Monday, via Locked on Colts. "We drafted him when I was a coach at Miami. I was around them during that process, around him his first two years of his career. So the one thing about him that always jumped off the tape ot me when he was at Baylor, the reason why he was drafted so high is he can go get the ball and he's proven that throughout his NFL career, that he's been an elite interceptor. "So we're hoping that we'll give him some time to get back and get back into football shape because that takes a while. But hoping that we can get some of those interceptions going." Howard is now 32 years old and didn't play in the NFL last season. So his last regular-season snaps came in 2023. However, Anarumo doesn't have any concerns about Howard's time off or where he's at in his career. "Last year with the Bengals, we worked him out back in December," Anarumo said. "So you've seen him move a little bit and look good and I just feel good about the athlete that he is. And maybe you could look at it as his legs got a year off to rest. So one thing I know is his ball skills and those things, they don't go away with time, and he still has those." Howard is joining the Colts late in the offseason, but his past experience and being able to operate in a variety of different defensive schemes should help him acclimate quickly to Anarumo's defense. "Well, he's played a lot of football," Anarumo added. "He's played in a lot of systems over the course of his career. So while we may call it a little bit something different than what he's used to, he'll just equate it to the things he knows. And I don't think there's going to be anything where it's like, okay, this is totally different. So I think he'll pick it up pretty quick." The starting cornerback spot opposite of Charvarius Ward still seems to be up for grabs at this point, with the Colts having to work through injuries at this position.
