The Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay has decided to remain with the team going into the new season, the team announced on Friday. The update comes after McVay stated during his end-of-season news conference that he would be taking the “appropriate time” to decide on his next move.

Following a 5-12 season, this was McVay’s worst season with the Rams since joining the team in 2017. The team suffered an array of injury setbacks, including that of starting quarterback Matthew Stafford, wide receiver Cooper Kupp and defensive tackle Aaron Donald.

“I know I love football and I’m so invested in this thing and I’m in the moment right now,” McVay explained. “But at some point too, if you said, ‘What do you want to be able to do?’ I want to be able to have a family, and I want to be able to spend time with them.”

Hired by the Rams just before his 31st birthday, Sean McVay was made the youngest head coach in NFL history. With a record of 67-41, McVay has led the Rams to three NFC West titles, two NFC championships, and the Super Bowl LVI in 2022.
