Stetson Bennett IV

Scores two rushing touchdowns vs. NOLA

Aug 23 12:27am

Bennett completed 19 of 31 passes for 181 yards and rushed for two touchdowns during the Rams' 34-0 preseason win over the Saints on Saturday.

Bennett was once again named the starter for Saturday's exhibition contest while Matthew Stafford and most of the Rams' first-team offense observed the game from the sidelines. Bennett proceeded to lead the Rams on scoring drives on four of five series, with the fourth-year QB rushing for one- and eight-yard touchdowns in the second quarter. Rookie first-rounder Ty Simpson took over under center in the second half but couldn't match Bennett's production, which puts the latter in the driver's seat to be the Rams' backup quarterback behind Stafford for the regular season. The Rams will wrap up the preseason Thursday against the Chargers.
