The Los Angeles Rams re-signed quarterback Jimmy Garoppolo to a one-year, $11 million deal to be their primary backup again in 2025, ESPN and NFL Network reported Monday.
Garoppolo, 33, played the 2024 season on a one-year deal worth $3.1 million. He started the regular season finale in place of a resting Matthew Stafford, throwing for 334 yards in a meaningless 30-25 loss to Seattle.
Garoppolo was receiving interest from other teams, per ESPN.
Garoppolo is 43-21 as a starter in his career, throwing for 15,828 yards, 96 touchdowns and 52 interceptions for the New England patriots (2014-16), San Francisco 49ers (2017-22), Las Vegas Raiders (2023) and Rams.
He was selected in the second round of the 2014 draft by the Patriots and started for the 49ers in a Super Bowl LIV loss to the Kansas City Chiefs.
The Rams also reportedly reached a three-year, $29.6 million agreement with defensive tackle Poona Ford that includes $17 million guaranteed.
Ford may not even have to move after playing for the Los Angeles Chargers last season. He had 39 tackles, three sacks and one interception while starting all 17 games.
Overall, Ford has 229 tackles and 11.5 sacks in 101 games (81 starts) with the Seattle Seahawks (2018-22), Buffalo Bills (2023) and Chargers.
