2024 Fantasy Outlook
The 2023 fourth-round pick didn't suit up for a single game in his rookie campaign, suffering a shoulder injury before spending the remainder of the season on the reserve/non-football illness list with what turned out to be a case of burnout. The Rams picked up veteran Jimmy Garoppolo on a one-year deal to serve as a backup with Bennett's status unclear, and the two will likely compete for the primary backup role to incumbent Matthew Stafford. The 26-year-old Bennett may have one key edge in that battle, as Garoppolo will be suspended for the first two games of the season, and during the Rams' OTAs the former has shown flashes of the talent that helped him lead Georgia to two national titles.

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.

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.
