The long-term future of Rams head coach Sean McVay had been up in their air until he announced Friday that he would return for a seventh season in Los Angeles.
Prior to his decision to return, ESPN’s Adam Schefter reported that McVay took some time away to consider a number of life events that took place over the last year that included getting married, the death of his grandfather and reportedly contemplating potential deals to leave the sideline and join the broadcast booth.
In making his decision, the 36-year-old told Fox Sports’s Jay Glazer that he took time to really assure himself that he could “restore” and “renew” his passion and zest for the job, leaning on family and friends and taking time to reflect.
