Rams hire two ex-Redskins coaches, another from UCLA

LOS ANGELES -- The Los Angeles Rams have agreed to terms with a couple of colleagues from Sean McVay's days with the Washington Redskins, hiring Aubrey Pleasant as defensive backs coach and Shane Waldron as tight ends coach, a league source confirmed to ESPN. Eric Yarber will be the new wide receivers coach after serving in that role for neighboring UCLA, the source confirmed.

The Rams aren't expected to announce the hirings until next week.

Pleasant, who will work under new defensive coordinator Wade Phillips, spent the last four years with the Redskins, working as an offensive assistant in 2013 before transitioning to defense, serving as an assistant who worked primarily with defensive backs.
