Matthew Stafford and Kelly Stafford dated for more than six years as of TODAY.

Matthew Stafford is an American football quarterback for the Los Angeles Rams as of the 2024 NFL season. The Detroit Lions selected him with the 1st overall pick in the first round of the 2009 NFL Draft. Stafford spent his initial twelve seasons with the Lions and had many great individual seasons with the team while breaking many franchise records. However, his performance couldn’t help the team achieve success on the field as Detroit only managed to make the playoffs three times in twelve years with Stafford under center. But in a shocking scenario, Stafford was traded to the Rams in exchange for Jared Goff in 2021. The former Bulldog made his presence felt immediately as he brought Lombardi to L.A. in his first year with the new team. By the end of the 2023 season, the Rams have reached the playoffs in two of their last three seasons with the McVay-Stafford combo but have zero playoff wins since their SB run. The two-time Pro Bowler is in the midst of his 16th season in the NFL as of November 2024. Stafford attended the University of Georgia where he started 34 games for the Bulldogs from 2006 to 2008. He finished his collegiate career with more than 7,700 passing yards and 24 total touchdowns. The Tampa native won the UIL 4A Division I State Championship in 2005 while attending Highland Park High School.
