Kelly Stafford reflects on last NFL season — and “wonders” about the future.
In an Instagram post, the wife of Los Angeles Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford shared a carousel of photos from the team’s Sunday, Jan. 19 game against the Philadelphia Eagles, which they lost 28-22.
“There are not enough words to express how proud I am,” Stafford, 35, wrote. “I joke that we’re old and tired, but I honestly would never get tired of seeing you out there or watching our little girls cheer for their daddy.”
She concluded, “I wonder if this is the end or not… I guess we’ll find out.”

The pictures show Kelly and Matthew’s daughters — twins Sawyer and Chandler, 7, Harper, 6, and Tyler, 4 — happily posing with their mom and dad on the sidelines of the game that knocked the Rams out of their Super Bowl Championship quest.
Now, as the team heads into the offseason and weeks before Matthew’s 37th birthday on Feb. 7, Kelly is eyeing his family’s next steps.

The signal-caller, who has played 16 seasons in the league since being the No. 1 pick in the 2009 draft by the Detroit Lions, told reporters after Sunday’s loss that he would “take some time to think” about his future.
“But I feel like I played pretty good ball,” Stafford said, later adding that he “feels like” he has more football left in him.

As the Staffords ponder their future, the family is also looking back at the playoffs in which Kelly and the girls battled the flu — while still trying to be good fans and traveling to Arizona for a playoff game on the team plane — earlier this month.
“We were sick on that flight,” Kelly said on the Jan. 15 episode of her podcast The morning after. “There was a huge guilt factor for me, ‘Should we be on this plane right now because of everyone around us and everyone who has to play this game?’ ”
