Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford is dealing with chronic back pain and pain in his throwing arm, according to ESPN's Diana Russini.
Stafford has also been dealing with pain in his throwing elbow and a sore ankle, per ESPN.
The injuries are not expected to impact Stafford's status for Sunday's game vs. the Packers.
Stafford, 33, is in his first season with Los Angeles after joining the franchise following an offseason trade with the Lions.
