I know Stet personally as a man, we grew up in the same town, knowing the same people, and him and I shared some of the same difficulties, mentally. I am proud that he has stuck with it and hope he remains strong and does what is best for himself.

Healthy amount of content too! Still not as much as the Cowgirls but baby steps..

You gotta love Bennett. What ever he's been though, it's made him into a really relatable and sincere human being. I still say he's the future of the Rams and he's gonna be great!

Stetson is extremely lucky to have been drafted by a team that is respectful and encouraging. Other teams would have released him. So give it your all because you owe it to the Rams and those who believe in you

[@artistamisto]

What's more annoying is all the I Mean stuff. Saying or even typing it to start a sentence is wack. I'll never get typing "I mean...' it's such bad grammar to begin a sentence with, and all the time to think about what they're going to type people still do it! Bad habits all around. I try to never use I mean first and wow people it can be done with a little conscious effort! Also it sounds so dumb just saying "Ah meeean..." like go find your brain. 🤣

[@thejustcruzingpodcast5048]

he needed to address the media eventually that’s what being a pro does! everyone noticed he was gone with no information the entire year just speculations so he needed this moment and he did a great job of handling i think he’s the future!

[@gilgarza9599]

Not sure if it’s great to see bennet back but hopefully they get the most out of what he showed in college. He’ll be 29 by the time his rookie contract is up and it looks like he might hang around long enough to be a legitimate backup for whoever the qb is at that time.

He’s done out here

Really pulling for Stetson to get back into the roster and be a part of our success. He is working hard to get back to where he belongs. Rams fans want only the best for Stetson. GO RAMS!!

[@neilgonzalez551]

Stetson was the first quarterback chosen by Mcvay and the Rams in the draft, and the last quarterback that was drafted by the Rams was Goff under coach Fisher. Wow, when most teams find themselves drafting a quarterback every year. Lol

[@Jonny0nline]

Stetson stans are wild

[@Swany0525]

It's crazy how we side step transparency, and we enable. This still continues to be handled poorly. Truth be told.

[@tunahelpa5433]

My take on Bennett is that he freaked out under the pressure and needed to "take a beat", as actors say. Now, being 3rd string, the pressure is off and he should do fine this year, fitting right in. He's tough and will be okay.

[@briannelson566]

So you’re saying he was weak and then he was tough?

[@tunahelpa5433]

@briannelson566 no. If anything he's still weak, but is sheltered by being 3rd string. I'll withhold judgment until I see him in a game that counts. Oops, I did say he was tough. Well, we don't know yet....

[@juliegahret5236]

Very difficult to stand up there and answer those questions about the details of his Mental Health. I wish him well and hope others will seek out help when needed.

[@guilhermecouto9477]

You Know

[@artistamisto]

If not already implemented, sports mental health advisors should be made more available to every player. We saw what happened with that tennis girl and gymnastics girl and others and last year Stetson. WNBA players have been receptive to interviewers for bringing up mental health questions because a lot of them go through it, more than many admit to. The pressures that come with sports are noticeably real. Especially with social media getting out of hand.

[@davidbrazell5179]

Bennett is going too be turnt this preseason

[@DavidRetana-tq5kk]

[@joelhildinger5180]

The Rams need to sign Witherspoon back asap.

[@fjfost]

I get the interest about the absence, and the questions necessary. But not ONE @#%&* question about football, OTAs, on the field - WTH? Are all journalists this dumb? Sensationalism like a National Enquirer headline. Here's a suggestion - how about some questions about football?

[@therealjwil5]

How much FOOTBALL has he played the last year? They asked exactly what they needed to. Get it out of the way so they don't have to herlar him be vague again. Now they can ask how his passes to the non roster invitees went.

I just think the guy went through something and he has returned so let the guy move on. All stupid questions!

[@erichumber3831]

Stetson, the truth will set you free and put this whole thing to bed. However when a person is vague and doesn't tell specific information as to why they missed an entire season after being arrested for being drunk in public and making a scene. If you have a problem with alcohol then just say it people will respect you more than hiding

[@therealjwil5]

Exactly. If it was mental health beyond just alcohol, say it. It's empowering and people will rally behind you. Vague is for the weak minded

[@cy4330]

Nope. People won't respect so do you. Not sure why it has anything to do with you though I mean if Les, Kroenke and McVay have no problems keeping it in house what is your problems?

[@therealjwil5]

@cy4330 they are doing that for the future image and saving players private life. It's up to the player to not be secretive (only peaks speculation and resentment) and just be honest and up front.

[@andrewortiz3498]

Ngl im getting that hint as well. His responses seemed lack luster and felt like a player that isn’t sorry but still wants to be on this team would say. Obviously we’ll see how he performs but I have my suspicions.

What part of his interview convinced you he has nailed himself as the team's future?

[@backwoodsgamer6197]

Say what ya want, but he’s got a light in his eyes just like he did at Georgia. if he ever gets his shot as qb1 he won’t look back and will bring y’all’s team rings 😴

[@dr.pakadoc717]

What he did last year is irrelevant, so let's keep it simple. Whichever QB best performs makes the second and third string positions. If no one steps up, keep Jimmy G for one year and look for a better alternatives for the future. No need to keep 3 QBs after the second game if he or Winn does not play very well in the preseason.

[@SimplyDocd]

Stetson is the future in LA

[@therealjwil5]

For being 25 and college educated, he sounds like he's 17 and can't speak in front of crowds. Doesn't bode well for his NFL future. Crossed his arms for a second (defensive stance) and should just be open and honest.

[@johnmar5]

Hope he's healthy. A red flag for me is that he said he doesn't know what he has learned about him during his leave 😮
