Stafford to be game-time call vs. Packers due to thumb injury

Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford is listed as questionable for Sunday's matchup against the Green Bay Packers. Head coach Sean McVay says Stafford is expected to be a game-time decision, according to Stu Jackson of the team's official site.

Stafford, who sprained the UCL in his right thumb in Week 8, was held out of practice all week.

McVay added that the veteran signal-caller is "progressing every day."

Stafford has thrown for 2,070 yards and eight touchdowns against seven interceptions while leading the Rams to a 3-5 record.

Brett Rypien is in line to start in the team's Week 9 game if Stafford is unable to go.
