No broadcast details yet, but hospitality packages go on sale, April 6th through Ticket Master, with regular tickets following April 7th. Rams fans are buzzing about the match-up, especially with the team coming off an NFC Championship run last year and looking like favorites for Super. Bowl 61 right here at SoFi Stadium. The squads loaded with talent that could make waves internationally.

Receivers Puka, Nakua, and Devonte Adams, and Ed rusher, Jared Verse. Meanwhile, the Rams locked in running back Ronnie Rivers on a one-year deal.
