According to Adam Schefter, it’s uncertain whether Goff will be able to play in next week’s regular-season finale. 

The plan is for Goff to undergo further testing after the Rams return to Los Angeles, but there are obvious concerns about this injury.

The Rams currently have John Wolford in place as their No. 2 quarterback if Goff is unable to suit up. 

Goff, 26, was the No. 1 overall pick by the Rams out of Cal back in 2016. He was entering the final year of his four-year deal worth $27.9 million when the Rams picked up Goff’s fifth-year option.

From there, the Rams signed Goff to a four-year, $134 million extension that includes an NFL record $110 million guaranteed last year. 

In 2020, Goff has appeared in 15 games for the Rams and thrown for 3,952 yards, 20 touchdowns and 13 interceptions. He has also rushed for 76 yards and four touchdowns.
