Can DJax handle LA Rams synthetic turf at SoFi?

After four years of playing on the natural grass field of Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, the LA Rams found themselves playing on synthetic turf at the new $5 billion SoFi Stadium in 2020. But the Rams were not alone, as they share with that other team that plays in LA, the LA Chargers.

I guess you could say the Rams secretly are hoping to invoke some magic from the past this year, by stepping back into the way-back machine.  Perhaps the plan is to re-kindle a time when the team was known as the “greatest show on turf,” as the St. Louis Rams. Only now it’s QB Matthew Stafford to WRs Desean Jackson, Cooper Kupp, or Robert Woods, instead of QB Kurt Warner to WRs Isaac Bruce or Torry Holt.

Or, at least their fans certainly hope that takes place this upcoming season. After all, adding veteran quarterback Matthew Stafford came at a pretty steep price.

Actually, the turf at SoFi is called a “Matrix synthetic turf product.”  It’s the same stuff the Dallas Cowboys play on at Jerry’s World, err AT&T Stadium.

And according to its manufacturer’s website, their product is referred to as “a system that has been developed for athletes to experience a safe, authentic playing experience.” Matrix turf system There’s actually a “fiber factory” in Alabama where they make this stuff.  Despite some who suggest that SoFi has natural turf, the Rams’ own website confirms the installation of the Matrix turf system.
