Potentially obtaining Matthew Stafford wasn’t in the cards for Pete Carroll upon joining the Las Vegas Raiders. One month later, after news broke of Stafford wanting a new deal, the Los Angeles Rams quarterback suddenly became an option.

From Detroit to Los Angeles, the 2009 NFL Draft‘s first-overall pick has displayed a level of grit and arm talent that’s been rivaled by few. So much so that the arm talent Matthew Stafford possesses will go down as one of the best in National Football League history.

Stafford, 37, has been linked to the Las Vegas Raiders, who now have former Seahawks head coach Pete Carroll leading them into 2025. The Raiders are at least in the conversation, per Sports Illustrated senior writer Albert Breer.
