The Los Angeles Rams canceled practice on Friday due to the Woolsey wildfire in Southern California that has forced the evacuation of some of the team's players, coaches and team personnel.
"We just felt like the most important thing was for the guys to be with their families, their wives and their kids and be that support structure and do things the right way and not have them come in and be totally distracted like I know I would be if I was in their role," coach Sean McVay said Friday in a conference call.
McVay said his team's top priority was the safety of all individuals connected to the Rams' organization, many of whom live in Ventura and Los Angeles County communities impacted by the fire.
