Most Career Passing Yards by a Los Angeles Rams Player

The Rams’ quarterback legacy spans generations, cities, and eras — from the leather helmet days of Bob Waterfield to the SoFi Stadium heroics of Matthew Stafford. They’ve been led by MVPs, Hall of Famers, and even grocery store clerks turned Super Bowl MVPs. Whether in Los Angeles or St. Louis, Rams QBs have always delivered fireworks. Here’s a look at the top 10 career passing yard leaders in Rams history.

TOP 10 LIST

10. Vince Ferragamo – 9,376 Yards
Ferragamo had two stints with the Rams and famously helped lead them to Super Bowl XIV, flashing a big arm and toughness.

The 2010 No. 1 pick never quite reached his ceiling due to injuries, but he still racked up over 11,000 yards in St. Louis.

8. Bob Waterfield – 11,849 Yards
A Rams pioneer, Waterfield won an NFL title and could beat teams with his arm, legs, or even his kicking foot.

7. Kurt Warner – 14,447 Yards
From stocking shelves to Super Bowl MVP, Warner’s “Greatest Show on Turf” remains one of the most electrifying offenses in NFL history.

6. Matthew Stafford – 14,700 Yards
In just a few seasons, Stafford brought a Lombardi Trophy to L.A. and is still climbing the franchise leaderboard.

5. Norm Van Brocklin – 16,114 Yards
A deep-ball artist of the 1950s, Van Brocklin was a true gunslinger who shared time with Waterfield during a dynamic era.
