Stafford has reportedly been dealing with an aggravated disc in his back, and while he previously completed some private individual work where he threw behind the scenes, he had been sitting out of team drills. This is a step in the right direction with the Rams' season opener vs. the Houston Texans now less than three weeks away.

Matthew Stafford returned to practice on Monday, according to a video posted by the Rams. It ends some speculation about the status of the star QB.
