As of right now, the LA Rams are slated to have five primetime games, the most of any NFL team so far.

It definitely played a part in the LA Rams facing OTAs with numerous players still recuperating from last year’s injuries, The most concerning injury was that of LA Rams starting quarterback Matthew Stafford, who struggled with lingering soreness in his throwing elbow.
