Bennett, a 2023 fourth-round pick, did not see game action in 2025 while serving as Los Angeles' emergency No. 3 quarterback behind Matthew Stafford and Jimmy Garoppolo. With Garoppolo unsigned and considering retirement, an opportunity is there for Bennett to compete for the primary backup role, though he now faces fresh competition from rookie first-round pick Ty Simpson. Simpson is widely viewed as the Rams' long-term successor to the 38-year-old Stafford, which clouds Bennett's path to meaningful upside within the organization. Unless he clearly outperforms Simpson in the battle for the No. 2 job, Bennett's long-term outlook on the roster remains uncertain.
