Sean McVay hasn’t given any indication which way he’s leaning as he mulls retirement, but perhaps the tea leaves can tell us what might be coming. According to Jeremy Fowler of ESPN, McVay is letting coaches from his staff pursue opportunities with other teams without resistance.
In other words, he won’t block them from taking a job with another team, even if it’s for the same position they currently hold in Los Angeles. Teams are allowed to block coaches from lateral moves – like the Rams did with Jonathan Cooley last year – but McVay won’t do that, given his current situation and uncertainty.
