ESPN report: These four players are currently contending for the NFL no.1 leaderboards for the rams.
In 2024, Tyler Higbee, Cooper Kupp, Matthew Stafford, and Kyren Williams can all accomplish notable goals.
Cooper Kupp, Kyren Williams, and Matthew Stafford of the Los Angeles Rams are all in position to climb the team’s individual career stat leaderboards. Tyler Higbee is another, and his rise is contingent upon his recuperation from a serious injury.
Currently ranks among the NFL’s all-time Top 10 career performers. Now in his fourth season in Los Angeles and after 12 years with the Detroit Lions, Stafford is prepared to contend for the number one quarterback position on two NFL clubs.
Although he has a long list of goals to achieve, Kyren Williams can continue to build on his breakthrough season. He will rise quickly in the ranks with another outstanding season, but it won’t be simple; he will have to overcome nagging injuries and competition from a highly anticipated rookie.
If Kupp wants to make a serious run at becoming the Rams’ all-time leading receiver, he must demonstrate that injuries have not prematurely put him in the twilight of his career. Catching the two Hall of Famers (yes, two; Torry Holt’s absence is unforgivable) won’t be simple.
Currently, Tyler Higbee leads the Rams in productivity among tight ends. He has had a difficult career and is currently recovering from a serious knee injury. His perseverance will propel him into the L.A. all-time Top 10, and if he can return for a few more seasons, a Top 5 finish is very likely.
Matthew Stafford’s attempts at passing away
Staff should easily pass former Rams greats Bob Waterfield, Kurt Warner, and Norm Van Brocklin (as well as Sam Bradford) at #9 with 1425 to move up to #5. It will take him playing out his contract through 2026, maybe even longer, to crack the Top 3.

Finalizations
Stafford can go from #8 (936) to #5 (1121), where Kurt Warner now sits, in just 200. He’s still not as good as #4 Jared Goff, even with a herculean effort in 2024, but #1 is within reach after three productive seasons.

A career-best season would push him up to #5 behind Van Brocklin, but more likely he’ll go from #9 (10,938) to #6 and take Warner’s (14,447) slot. Once more, it would require three successful seasons to claim the top rank.

11,849 Bob Waterfield

Matthew Stafford: 10,938 points gained
It is reasonable to predict that Stafford (75), seated at #8, will move up to #5 and take up Jared Goff’s (107) spot. He ranks #1 with an average of 30 per season during the course of his three-year contract.

An attempt

Kyren Williams, 12 Receiving; Tyler Higbee and Cooper Kupp
Receptions #4 Kupp (567) ought to breeze through #3 Henry Ellard (593), but to challenge the top two, Torry Holt (869) and Isaac Bruce (942), it will require four straight seasons with 100 catches. With 353 receptions, Higbee is now the top receiving tight end for the Rams. He is ranked #9 overall, and his ability to overtake Robert Woods (367) for #8 will rely on how well he recovers from knee surgery.

Yards
Kupp (7066), trailing Ellard (9761), Bruce (14,109), and Holt (12,660), will require two more strong seasons to make forward. #14 Higbee (3602) will probably not get on the field quickly enough to challenge anyone else, but he just needs 10 yards to move up one spot beyond Bob Boyd (3611).

Kupp should easily pass #3 with 51. Hirsch Elroy (53). Higbee (22) trails Robert Woods by just one spot at number fifteen. If all goes well, he should be able to crack the Top 10 in the next years.

Others, perhaps?
It will take a lot for second-year Ethan Evans to contend with the Big 3 of Johnny Hekker, Donnie Jones, and Dale Hatcher because the Rams have had some excellent punters in the past. With just his rookie contract, he ought to soar through the ranks.
It’s impossible to resist the opportunity to thank Aaron Donald, who departed with 111 sacks despite his retirement. The Rams’ current leader is #29t Michael Hecht (10.5), followed by rookie upstart Kobie Turner (9) at #31t and another rookie, Byron Young (8), at #33t.
