McVay says Stafford trade ‘never’ got close to happening

Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay was all smiles talking to the press on Tuesday about his recently retained quarterback Matthew Stafford, admitting that he “never felt like [a trade] ever got close”. Stafford and his potential trade out of the NFC West was the talk of the NFC combine, but in reality Los Angeles seemed to have a solid idea that they were going to hang on to their Super Bowl winning QB all along.

“That was never something that felt like ever got close, and it was never something that I allowed my mind to go to,” McVay said, via ESPN.
