Despite rumors that he might retire, Sean McVay chose to return as the Rams coach for the 2023 season. While that guarantees at least one more season of McVay leading Los Angeles, the 37-year-old made it clear he wants to stay with the team for a long time.
On Friday, McVay said he doesn’t want the rumors of his retirement to hang as a cloud over the team again, and he wouldn’t commit to the Rams if he wasn’t all in on the future of the team.
“You want to make sure you’re making a decision… for years to come,” McVay said, via The Athletic’s Jourdan Rodrigue. “I’m committed to not having this become ‘a story’ every year. I don’t take that lightly.”
