The Los Angeles Rams have announced their end of year awards, recognizing the likes of quarterback Matthew Stafford and rookie tight end Terrance Ferguson, among others.
With the postseason on its way and a matchup against the Carolina Panthers looming, the Los Angeles Rams have announced their end of year awards for the 2025 season, recognizing some of the top players on the team.
Quarterback Matthew Stafford has taken home the Daniel F. Reeves Memorial Award for the third year in a row, recognizing him as the Rams' most valuable player. This should come as a surprise to no one, given Stafford's MVP-caliber season.
Stafford has had arguably the best season of his 17 year NFL career, completing 388 of 597 passes and leading the league in passing yards (4,707), passing touchdowns (47), passing first downs (236), and passing yards per game (276.9).
On top of this, Stafford was named NFC Offensive Player of the Month for the second month in a row, making him the only NFL quarterback to earn the award twice this season.
Needless to say, Stafford has made a case that he's not just the MVP for the Rams but for the entire NFL as well.
Stafford wasn't the only player recognized by the Rams organization at the end of the season. Tight end Terrance Ferguson earned the Caroll Rosenbloom Memorial Award recognizing him as the Rams' Rookie of the Year.
Ferguson was selected in the second round with the 46th overall pick. This season, he made 11 catches for 231 yards, averaging 21 yards per reception. He also recorded three touchdowns and nine first downs.
Linebacker Nate Landman was given the Carl Ekern Spirit of the Game Award, which is given to "the player who best exemplifies sportsmanship, ethic and commitment to his teammates."
Landman was named a captain for the first time in his NFL career this year, and has been praised by his coaches and teammates for " the genuine way he built relationships with teammates since arriving in Los Angeles, as well as his authentic leadership and energy," per Stu Jackson of TheRams.com.
Landman started all 17 games this season, recording 132 combined tackles (64 solo), eight tackles for loss, six passes defended, five quarterback hits, four forced fumbles, two fumbles recovered, and an interception.
Offensive lineman Alaric Jackson received the Ed Block Courage Award, which is "given to a player who is a role model of inspiration, sportsmanship and courage."
This year, Jackson was diagnosed with blood clots for the second time in his NFL career. Despite this, Jackson was able to overcome the diagnosis in order to start 16 games this season, only missing the Week 17 game against the Atlanta Falcons due to an ankle injury.
