When the Rams traded Jared Goff to the Lions for Matthew Stafford, there was a lot of talk about the apparently fractured relationship between Sean McVay and Goff. Jay Glazer even reported that Goff hung up on McVay when he called to inform him about the trade to Detroit.
McVay admits he didn’t handle the trade properly and wishes he would’ve had better communication with Goff leading up to the deal, taking the blame for that aspect of it. But now that we’re further removed from the split, it seems their relationship has mended. McVay said on Mike Silver’s podcast recently that one of the best texts he got after the Rams won Super Bowl LVI was from Goff.
