    IN PICS: Matthew Stafford’s Wife Kelly Highlights Scary Ordeal as Daughter Battles Illness During Wild Card Game

    Matthew Stafford led his team, the Los Angeles Rams, to a fantastic victory Monday night against the Minnesota Vikings. This win came at a difficult stage not only for the city but for his family as well.

    The Wild Card game was moved to Arizona due to the Palisades fire that has engulfed Los Angeles. This meant that Stafford’s family had to travel for the game. His wife, Kelly, showcased the grit of her daughter doing so despite being ill.

    During the game, her daughter’s condition did not improve, and it seemed like she had been throwing up. On her podcast, Kelly revealed that her daughters were puking before being hospitalized. “Fun to watch my guy, but damn we are glad this game is over,” she captioned her story.

    The Rams advanced to the Divisional Round with a 27-9 win over the Vikings. Stafford showcased his brilliance by throwing for 209 yards and scoring two TDs. However, after the game, he also rushed to care for his sick daughter.

    “This girl in the middle of her pukes in the bathroom, ‘Mommy are we still winning’ and “She couldn’t wait to be in his arms,” Kelly captioned on the picture of the father-daughter duo.
