Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford will be one of the featured stars in the second season of the hit Netflix docuseries “Quarterback”, according to a source in an exclusive report to me and Turf Show Times. The Super Bowl-winning quarterback of the L.A. Rams turned down Netflix and executive producers Peyton Manning and Keith Cossrow for the first season of the show, according to wife Kelly Stafford during a recent episode of her podcast “The Morning After”, but she added that he was open to doing the show depending on the outcome of season one and it appears that he was happy with what he saw.

One of the featured quarterbacks in the first season, Patrick Mahomes, was able to win MVP and the Super Bowl in 2022, so the show didn’t prove too much of a distraction for him.

The show originally aired on July 12th this year and featured Mahomes, Kirk Cousins and Marcus Mariota in season one. Since the end of the first season, which has been cited as one of Netflix’s biggest hits of 2023, many quarterbacks were rumored or confirmed to have turned down the show, including Stafford.​


But per my source with knowledge of the situation, the Rams QB will be featured in this upcoming season.

A person with knowledge of the situation informed me that Stafford is not only confirmed to be on it, NFL Network has been filming for it now for a week and Stafford was said to be mic’d up in his game against the Seahawks to open the season. It’s already been a storied offseason for Matthew Stafford, from trade rumors to learning how to connect with young teammates, so Netflix is getting its money’s worth from the jump.

Netflix’s “Quarterback” is a documentary developed by the NFL around the basis of a similar hit series, “Drive to Survive”, which showcased the Formula 1 racing circuit and generated plenty of popularity around the sport. It’s worth mentioning that the NFL has never allowed this level of access before and all three quarterbacks during last season wore a microphone in every single game they played, so the typically quiet and private Stafford will be allowing fans into parts of his life that we’ve never gotten to see.


With the Rams off to an impressive 1-0 start coming off a 30-13 win over the Seahawks, following Matthew Stafford for the 2023 season could be the perfect marriage between Netflix and an L.A. quarterback. Will Stafford’s Rams defy the odds and win the whole thing again? Whether the L.A. Rams pull off the improbable or not, fans will get an opportunity to watch the season unfold twice, including a side to the starting quarterback we’ve never seen before.

The Hollywood side.

Man, can't wait to hear some of your opinions about his wife after this news.

Personally, I think this is awesome and looking forward to it.

Quarterback, Swamp Kings, and the Johnny Manziel shows were really well produced. I can't wait for this shit. Especially if the Rams continue to win games and go into playoffs.

I hit me all over again after watching Matthew's quick release and laser accuracy and how special he is. He is the best QB we've had since Warner. Other team's fans would "kill' to have him as their QB (looking at you, Jets fans). Enjoy him, Rams bro's. His health and ability will decide how well we do this year.

Fuck yes! I love anything to do with Stafford! Amazing person, QB, and entertaining hearing or knowing anything about him.

@Loyal “ Stafford is a Aries and he is very determined and his stars and fortune is aligning for another good game and cosmic energy” :thinking:

Every QB that was on last seasons show is not playing well or not playing at all. Maybe Mahomes will get back into it, but maybe not. Its better to not have that type of personal exposure but thats just me. It gives better tape of the particular individual on a more personal level in which they can know what triggers someone or to throw someone off their game. So I am not a fan of Stafford doing this.

Uhh...Mahomes is playing just fine. He doesn't control whether his WRs can catch the ball.

If I read this correctly, the participants from season 1 were filmed during LAST year. Mahomes was MVP and the chiefs won the SB.
Cousins had a good season too.

If Stafford is going to be on the next season he’s already being filmed now.

Proof that Matthew ain't hanging up his cleats any time soon.

BAM
Not sure Matthew’s decision to join a reality TV show is any indication of his future plans.

His decision will probably have more to do with whether the team can remain competitive and keep him upright.

Well... it's a pretty SURE sign to me that he plans to do it.

Oh... and his post-game words of wisdom to the team also reveals how he feels about the confidence he has in his team and what he thinks about all the Ram naysayers.

Positive thoughts are a powerful thing Grasshopper.

Sorry I'm not familiar with this show. They don't start following him around or filming during the season, do they?

Yes, they basically follow around the QB and their family throughout season. Gives a direct insight into their lives in and around football and how it effects them and their families. Was actually pretty good show. I'd enjoy seeing Stafford in it. I'd assume if they find a few others they'd be doing this season.

That's exactly what they do but there can be some access restrictions.
Ugh. Not a fan of distractions, but if anyone can handle it it’s Staff I suppose. At least he said yesterday he doesn’t know, he’s just focused on the 49ers.
