Sean McVay once again had to replace his offensive coordinator this offseason after losing Kevin O’Connell to the Minnesota Vikings. He didn’t waste much time landing on a successor to O’Connell, choosing to bring back Liam Coen as his new offensive coordinator.
Coen was with the Rams from 2018-2020, spending his last season in L.A. as the assistant quarterbacks coach. He left to become Kentucky’s offensive coordinator in 2021, but he’s headed back to the Rams for next season.
In an interview with The Athletic, Coen told Jeff Howe that the Rams were the only team he’d be willing to leave Kentucky for – high praise for both the organization and Sean McVay, in particular. He even turned down an interview with the Saints to become their offensive coordinator, doing the same when the Miami Hurricanes expressed interest.
