Los Angeles Rams, champions of the last Super Bowl, extended the contract of stellar quarterback Matthew Stafford this Saturday for four years, confirmed managers of the Los Angeles NFL football club.
Stafford, who led the Rams to the Super Bowl trophy in their first season with the club after arriving from the Detroit Lions last year, will remain with the team until the 2026 season.
The extension of the contract was confirmed by the Rams on the team's website. No figures were mentioned, but various press reports indicate that the new Stafford agreement has a value of $160 million, of which 135 are guaranteed.
Stafford was entering the final year of his previous contract of 135 million for five years and could have won a mega contract if he had gone to the free agency market.
However, the 34-year-old was always expected to remain in Los Angeles, where he has forged a close bond with head coach Sean McVay as the foothold of an offensive dynamic.
Stafford, the first pick in the 2009 draft, threw for 4,886 aerial yards last season with 41 touchdowns in 17 games.
Only Tom Brady of Tampa Bay (5,316 yards) and Justin Herbert of Los Angeles Chargers (5,014) had more yards thrown in the campaign.
