The NFL season has fans getting hyped up for their favorite teams to take one another during opening week, which begins on Thursday. Part of the week one action will see the Matthew Stafford and the Los Angeles Rams take on the Detroit Lions.
The game is a rematch of the 2024 Wildcard match-up, in which the Lions beat the Rams 24-23 in a close and entertaining game. Stofford’s wife, Kelly, was one of the NFL fans in attendance in Detroit last season.
According to Kelly, this game will reportedly be a different situation as she and her daughters will not be attending the 2024 NFL week one game due to the controversial welcome they received at the game in January.
Kelly Stafford claimed she and their two daughters were booed when Matt returned to Detroit to take on the Lions. It was his first game back in the Motor City after taking on and beating the Cincinnati Bengals in the 2022 Super Bowl.
Kelly Stafford Sites Mental Health As The Reason For Skipping The Rams Week One Match-up In Detroit
Kelly Stafford announced her plans on “The Morning After” podcast, commenting, “Physically, I am not [attending],” adding, “After our amazing, amazing live show, I’m going to hop on a plane and head home, so I can watch it with my daughters here, so that’s the plan.”
Stafford also added that the choice was left up to her two daughters, who ultimately decided that it was best for them to stay home to watch their father take on his former squad, where he played parts of 12 seasons.
Kelly also told the New York Post, “…There’s a lot that goes into it… but I just think it’s the better decision for my mental health and for my daughters.” So fans can expect not to see Kelly and the rest of the Stafford gang on the TV when Matt goes to battle in Detroit.
REPORT: Bengals Superstar WR Ja’Marr Chase Is Trending Towards Not Playing in Cincy’s Season Opener

Cincinnati Bengals star wide receiver Ja’Marr Chase is reportedly leaning towards not playing in the team’s opener this weekend.
Chase, who has two years left on his current deal with the AFC outfit, has been holding out for a new deal, and the team is in danger of starting the season without him.
ESPN’s Adam Schefter suggested that the Bengals have made another appeal to the player heading into their Week 1 opener against the New England Patriots this coming Sunday.
“The Ja’Marr Chase situation is tricky because he has two years left on his deal..I do believe the Bengals have made another push to try and get something done here,” the NFL insider said on the Pat McAfee Show on Tuesday. “The question is will Ja’Marr Chase be willing to skip games.”
According to The Worldwide Leader in Sports, Chase is indeed open to missing games. MLFootball has cited the network as the source claiming that the wide receiver is leaning towards sitting out on Sunday.
Ja’Marr Chase Just One Of Multiple Big-Name Wideouts To Hold Out This Year
Several big-name wide receivers have signed lucrative extensions this offseason. The Philadelphia Eagles, Minnesota Vikings, and Detroit Lions all saved themselves the headache by getting their business done early.
But teams such as the Dallas Cowboys, San Francisco 49ers, and the Bengals left it late, with Cincinnati now the only one of the three needing to hand their star receiver a new contract before the start of the season.
Of course, there is still some time to come to terms with the player. But they might decide to call his bluff.
