""It's kind of, like, amazing," Mumpfield said. "Every time you step out there, you're like, dang, you're out there with a Hall of Famer and a guy that you watched. And just how he approaches the game and how cerebral he is with his technique and everything.""
""Ferg looks a little young in the face and so does Konata," Adams said. "But the way they go about their business is like true pros." Adams, 32, calls Mumpfield his "son" because "he reminds me so much of myself, like a young Tae," Adams said. "And honestly, I think he's ahead of where I was my rookie year, as far as just being comfortable in the league," he said."
The Rams beat the Jacksonville Jaguars 35-7, moving to 5-2 without injured receiver Puka Nacua. Matthew Stafford threw five touchdown passes and the team spread the ball to ten different receivers. Rookie wideout Konata Mumpfield and rookie tight end Terrance Ferguson each caught touchdown passes and played meaningful roles. Davante Adams finished with three touchdowns and praised the rookies' professionalism and comfort in the offense. Mumpfield, a seventh-round pick from Pittsburgh, expressed amazement at playing alongside Adams and indicated rapid acclimation to the NFL environment.
