Twice a year, Van Jefferson and his dad Shawn Jefferson compete – indirectly, of course. Shawn Jefferson is the Cardinals’ wide receivers coach, so each time the Rams face Arizona, Van gets to see his dad on the other sideline.
After Sunday’s game between the Rams and Cardinals, Jefferson and his dad shared an incredible moment on the field that was captured by “Hard Knocks.” Van was visibly upset after the loss, his third game back from injury, and his dad offered some words of encouragement to keep his head up.
