Jimmy Garoppolo: Everything you need to know

Garoppolo didn't attempt any pass attempts during three regular-season games in 2025. Garoppolo served as the Rams' backup quarterback in 2025 and had a career low in both pass yards and games played, as Matthew Stafford remained healthy for the entire season. Garoppolo is set to become a free agent this offseason and will likely look to earn a backup role on another team.

Garoppolo (back) is active for Sunday's divisional-round contest versus the Bears. Garoppolo popped up with a back issue on Thursday's injury report, but he'll still suit up and maintain his role as Los Angeles' backup quarterback behind Matthew Stafford. Meanwhile, Stetson Bennett (coach's decision) will operate as the emergency No. 3 quarterback, and he will only be eligible to enter if both Garoppolo and Stafford are forced out.

Garoppolo (back) is listed as questionable ahead of Sunday's divisional-round matchup against the Bears, Gary Klein of the Los Angeles Times reports. Garoppolo's back flared up earlier in the week, prompting the Rams to hold him out of Thursday's practice for precautionary measures, per Nate Atkins of The Athletic. If active for Sunday's divisional-round contest, Garoppolo is expected to operate as Los Angeles' backup quarterback behind Matthew Stafford.
