    Matthew Stafford's future with the Rams + Could the 49ers pay Brock Purdy and keep Brandon Aiyuk?

    Dianna Russini and Chase Daniel are back in Scoop City ahead of the 2025 NFL Scouting Combine. Dianna and Chase dive into the story on the top of every NFL fan's mind, the future of Matthew Stafford and the Los Angeles Rams. The team is allowing Stafford and his representation to explore the market and find his value. Could the Rams be moving on from their Super Bowl winning quarterback? And, which team would be interested in his services? Dianna and Chase explore the possibilities. Plus, how robust will the market be for former New York Jets quarterback, Aaron Rodgers? Dianna shares thoughts on the four-time NFL MVPs market.  Plus, the 2025 offseason will be fascinating for the San Francisco 49ers. The Niners need to pay their starting quarterback, Brock Purdy. But, can the 49ers keep stars like Brandon Aiyuk, Deebo Samuel, George Kittle, and Christian McCaffrey in place and pay their QB? It may take some creative cap maneuvering from General Manager John Lynch.  And, could we see trade discussions heat up at this year's combine? Two massive names are lingering on the trade market, Myles Garrett and Micah Parsons. Will the Cleveland Browns get a deal in place prior to the 2025 NFL Draft? And, would the Dallas Cowboys actually move a superstar entering his prime? Dianna shares her insights on these stories and Chase reacts to the possibilities.  Hosts: Dianna Russini, Chase Daniel Producer: Marissa Dunn Executive Producer: Stephen Bond Follow Scoop City on YouTube  Follow Dianna Russini: @DMRussini Follow Chase Daniel: @ChaseDaniel Learn more about your ad choices.
