10 Observations from Day 2 of 2026 Rams Training Camp: Matthew Stafford sharp in camp debut; Puka Nacua, Davante Adams, Trent McDuffie and Cam Lampkin provide additional highlight moments - Rams

What the report says

The Los Angeles Rams’ team site reported that the club held its second training camp practice, and first session open to the public, on Monday in Los Angeles. Senior staff writer Stu Jackson wrote that quarterback Matthew Stafford participated for the first time in this camp after a planned rest day Sunday, and looked sharp while completing throws to receivers including Puka Nacua, Davante Adams and Konata Mumpfield.

According to the Rams’ report, head coach Sean McVay said Stetson Bennett IV took most of the second-team quarterback work, though McVay indicated the team would keep evaluating how to divide reserve snaps with Bennett and Ty Simpson when Stafford practices. Rookie wide receiver CJ Daniels was also highlighted for catching nearly every target while working mostly with backup quarterbacks, with McVay pointing to preseason games as an important evaluation setting for him.

The practice also produced several defensive moments. Cornerback Cam Lampkin intercepted a pass for a second straight day with a notable play, while Trent McDuffie broke up a sideline throw intended for Nacua after Nacua had made a one-handed catch earlier. Emmanuel Forbes Jr. had his own back-and-forth sequence with Adams, and defensive linemen Myles Garrett and Braden Fiske were credited with disrupting plays in the backfield.

The observations matter as early indicators of how the Rams are managing Stafford, assessing backup quarterback reps and testing high-profile receiver-cornerback matchups. As with all training camp reports, the takeaways are preliminary and based on practice performance rather than game conditions.
