The Los Angeles Rams are looking towards free agency, and multiple players have discussed their future with the team.
The Los Angeles Rams lost to the Seattle Seahawks in the NFC Championship game, ending their 2025 season. Now, they will look ahead to free agency and the draft, with many potential free agents moving on.
Matthew Stafford might be the biggest question mark in terms of whether he decides to retire or return for at least one more season. He is still under contract, and played arguably his best season in his career.
Stafford isn't the only player who has a questionable future on the Rams, as multiple players are would-be free agents, and have already discussed their return to Los Angeles.
Offensive lineman Rob Havenstein spoke to Stu Jackson of therams.com about his future, bringing up the idea that he may consider retirement.
The lineman also said he would weigh his 11-year career regarding potentially walking away from the NFL.
“Love of the game, what’s best for my family. I’ve done a lot over these 11 years and been around some amazing people and had a lot of great memories and a lot of friends and I’m going to carry it with me forever," Havenstein said.
Havenstein missed 10 games in 2025 due to ankle and knee bursitis, and his health may play a major part in his decision to return.
Safety Kam Curl is a pending free agent, and he indicated he would "let it play out" regarding his return to the Rams.
"This is a great organization, a winning organization, and I would love to be back for sure," Curl said.
Curl had some great moments in 2025 and ended the season with 122 total tackles, two sacks, five passes defended, and two interceptions.
Fellow offensive lineman Steve Avila also addressed remaining with the Ramsin 2026.
“I think it would be awesome to stay here just with the culture that we have and everything that we’ve built. Day after the game, we’ll see how those talks go," Avila said via Adam Grosbard.
The Rams have multiple pending free agents, but also possess a roster that can still compete. Should Stafford return, he may be the catalyst that is needed for general manager Les Snead to also kick the tires on bringing back those players to go another run for a Super Bowl win.
