Matt Leinart“Glad the NFL moved the Rams’ playoff game from Los Angeles … making it clear TMZ Sports it wouldn’t be right to play tilt on Friday as fires continue to ravage the city.
The league has officially moved Monday’s Los Angeles-Minnesota Wild Card Round game to Arizona, citing the safety of its players and fans … and Leinart told us at LAX that he’s all for the move.
The former quarterback, who actually played his college ball in Los Angeles and then parts of his pro career in Glendale, Ariz., said things are just “more important than football” right now.
“Security and what everybody’s going through here is obviously a lot of devastation,” he said. “So I think it’s the smartest thing to do.”
That’s certainly a shame for the Rams and their fans … because the NFC West champions should have been rewarded with a first-round home game for all their success in 2024-25.
But Leinart said the guys should be able to handle the 370-mile trip … telling us, “they’re pros, they’ll figure it out. They’ll be fine.”
LA prez on rams Kevin Demoff It says the organization is providing at least 15 buses to transport 750 season-ticket holders to State Farm Stadium … to make at least part of Monday night’s game more comfortable.
