The Los Angeles Rams had plenty to celebrate on Wednesday, as they paraded through the streets of Los Angeles on their Super Bowl winners parade route. After the parade concluded, there was a rally at the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, in which most of the big-name Rams players spoke, including quarterback Matthew Stafford. As Stafford was preparing to get his photo taken on the rally stage, however, the photographer, Kelly Smiley, took a tumble and actually ended up fracturing her spine in the process. Stafford can be seen on the video wanting nothing to do with her rescue, but his wife, also named Kelly, rushed to her aide.

Now, one day later, the Stafford's are coming up big for Smiley in an unbelievable way by taking care of her medical expenses and replacing her camera equipment that was broken. This quote from Kelly Stafford truly shows what the Staffords are all about.
“We have been in communication with Kelly Smiley since yesterday’s incident and we are sorry for what happened. As we told Kelly, we will be covering all her hospital bills and replacing her cameras. We wish her a speedy recovery.” – Kelly Stafford
Sure, Matthew could have probably lent a hand on Wednesday instead of turning his back; if you saw any of that parade, though, you would know that Stafford was very tipsy and probably didn't truly recognize the seriousness of the incident. He obviously understands it now and he is showing it in the best possible way.
