ANALYSISGaroppolo did not appear among the quarterbacks suited up pregame, leaving
Stetson Bennett as
Dresser Winn to handle the Rams' signal-caller duties Sunday, according to
Stu Jackson of the team's official site. Garoppolo is expected to serve as the No. 2 quarterback this season, though he'll still miss the first two regular-season games while serving a suspension for a violation of the NFL's policy on performance-enhancing substances. Therefore, Bennett and Winn are set to compete for the backup quarterback job to begin the 2024 campaign, so it's not too surprising that they'll be the ones under center for the team Sunday. Garoppolo's next chance to suit up this preseason will come during Saturday's exhibition against the Chargers.
