<p>Matthew Stafford is still waiting to get started at Los Angeles Rams training camp, and his timetable to do so remains as hazy as ever.</p>
<p>The Rams starting quarterback visited back specialist Dr. Steven Watkins again on Saturday, head coach Sean McVay told reporters, via the Los Angeles Times. He confirmed the 37-year-old Stafford remains week-to-week and will not participate in a joint practice with the Dallas Cowboys on Tuesday.</p>
<p>Stafford's availability for the next joint practice with the Los Angeles Chargers the following week reportedly remains undetermined.</p>
<p>From the Times:</p>
<p>"What I don't want to do is set a timeline," McVay said. "I know he's making good progress. He saw Dr. Watkins again. ... Everything is in good shape."</p>
<p>Stafford has been held out of training camp after encountering back soreness during the offseason.</p>

<p>In Stafford's absence, Jimmy Garoppolo has taken first-team reps in his place while former fourth-round pick Stetson Bennett has worked with the second team. The Rams are scheduled to open their season Sept. 7 against the Houston Texans.</p>
<p>There were talks about Stafford exiting Los Angeles over the offseason, but he ended up agreeing to a contract restructure to remain on the team. He's entering his fifth season with the Rams, who won a Super Bowl in his first season in L.A. but have failed to advance past the divisional round since.</p>
