Rams coach Jeff Fisher informed Goff and Case Keenum of the switch when he met with the quarterbacks on Tuesday morning, sources said. Keenum, who has started the team’s first nine games, will be the team’s backup quarterback and second-year man Sean Mannion will remain No. 3 for now.
Goff was the first pick in 2016 NFL draft but he has made steady progress in practice during the first half of the season.
Sources said the Rams’ staff believed the rookie from Cal was “close” to stepping in as the starter within the past two weeks but Keenum remained the quarterback for Sunday’s 6-3 road win against the Jets at Met Life Stadium.
