2023 Fantasy Outlook
The Rams saw enough in Bennett to spend a fourth-round pick on the 25-year-old quarterback in April. A two-time national champion with a winning pedigree - 29-3 as a starter at Georgia - he boasts great reliability, good awareness in the pocket and the ability to limit turnovers (66:21 TD:INT), but he also starts his NFL career on the higher end in terms of age. He also doesn't have plus physical attributes, with a small 5-11, 190-pound frame, and will be an understudy to Matthew Stafford for at least the next few seasons barring retirement or a trade. Bennett and recent signee Brett Rypien will compete for the backup role, but significant snaps in 2023 for Bennett are unlikely. Read Past Outlooks

Future in L.A. looking uncertain
Head coach Sean McVay said Wednesday that he's uncertain whether Bennett (illness) will remain with the Rams in 2024, saying it's "a conversation for another time," Cameron DaSilva of USA Today reports.
ANALYSIS
Bennett, a 2023 fourth-round pick, spent his entire rookie campaign on the reserve/NFI list due to an undisclosed non-football illness. His absence was felt during the portions of the season in which Matthew Stafford missed time, as the Rams struggled to find answers while cycling through an unimpressive carousel of backup options. McVay said he thinks Bennett is "doing better," but that he "wouldn't be in a position to answer that accurately right now."

Latest Fantasy Rumors
Drawing interest from many teams
Bennett either has or will visit with 10 NFL teams ahead of the 2023 NFL Draft, Tom Pelissero of NFL Network reports.
ANALYSIS
Bennett is one of the most recognizable names in this year's class of quarterback prospects after winning back-to-back national titles with the Georgia Bulldogs' juggernaut roster. The 5-foot-11, 192-pound signal-caller was also a Heisman finalist after completing 68 percent of his passes for 4,127 yards and a 27:7 TD:INT ratio in 2022. However, Bennett does not project to have much upside given his moderate stature and advanced age for a draft prospect at 26 years old. Therefore, it would be surprising to see Bennett taken earlier than Day 3 of the 2023 NFL Draft.
