Rams beat Giants 28-6 behind Stafford and Adams

Published 22 September 2026

The Los Angeles Rams defeated the New York Giants 28-6 on Monday night at SoFi Stadium in Inglewood, California, as Matthew Stafford threw four touchdown passes and Davante Adams piled up eight receptions for 195 yards. Stafford completed 22 of 31 passes for 327 yards with one interception, throwing two scoring passes to Adams, one to Kyren Williams and one to Terrance Ferguson. The performance moved Stafford into sixth place on the NFL's all-time career touchdown pass list, though sources differed on his exact total, citing figures of 425, 426 and 427. Adams delivered his best catches and yardage output in a Rams uniform, hauling in a 31-yard touchdown in the first quarter and an 11-yard score in the third. His 64-yard reception set up Williams' 10-yard touchdown catch that extended the lead to 14-0 in the second quarter. The Giants lost starting quarterback Jaxson Dart on their first offensive series after he was hit high by Byron Young and low by Josaiah Stewart, injuring his left knee. Dart was ruled out, and the extent of the injury was not immediately known. Jameis Winston replaced him and completed 11 of 27 passes for 111 yards with an interception.
