Jimmy Garoppolo Won't play Sunday

Garoppolo is not expected to play in Sunday's preseason game against the Cowboys, Cameron DaSilva of USA Today reports.

Garoppolo did not appear among the quarterbacks suited up pregame, leaving Stetson Bennett as Dresser Winn to handle the Rams' signal-caller duties Sunday, according to Stu Jackson of the team's official site. Garoppolo is expected to serve as the No.2 quarterback this season, though he'll still miss the first two regular-season games while serving a suspension for a violation of the NFL's policy on performance-enhancing substances. Therefore, Bennett and Winn are set to compete for the backup quarterback job to begin the 2024 campaign, so it's not too surprising that they'll be the ones under center for the team Sunday. Garoppolo's next chance to suit up this preseason will come during Saturday's exhibition against the Chargers.
