The Rams have figured out Snead’s situation, at least for now.

McVay has been Washington’s offensive coordinator for the past three seasons.

He returned to the National Football League in 2010 as the assistant tight end coach for Washington.

There is a hard road ahead for McVay, as the Rams ranked last in yards and points scored. Of course, nothing is official yet, but this seems to be the likely move.

The day after the Broncos and Bills made their decisions on their new coaches, the Rams made their choice on Thursday, hiring Sean McVay on he interviewed with the 49ers Monday. The head coach is responsible for things that happen that he may not even know about. When the secretaries in the front office heard he was there to recruit McVay, they talked over each other, in order to pile on as much praise as possible. Especially since everything else they have opted to do has not worked over the past decade. “That opportunity was something that I’ll always cherish”. The previous youngest head coach had been Lane Kiffin, who was 31 when he was hired and lasted just over a season with the Oakland Raiders beginning in 2007. But Fisher was sacked on the morning of December 12, and at that point Snead’s job status became tenuous.

“What I think enabled Kirk to have some success, he truly was an extension of our coaching staff”, McVay said. The results were mixed. Two-time all-pro defensive tackle Aaron Donald has been the centerpiece of the unit.

The Rams’ deal with McVay is for five years, a person with knowledge of the contract told USA TODAY Sports’ Tom Pelissero. Goff, the first-overall pick in the 2016 NFL Draft out of the University of California, Berkeley, had a rough rookie season. He has also served as an offensive line coach for the Dallas Cowboys, New York Jets and Philadelphia Eagles.

That’s not uncommon, but Washington isn’t rebuilding or coming off a awful season, as they often are when making coaching hires.

One NFL team just hired the youngest head coach ever.

“His playlist is definitely different than Jeff’s”, Snead said, smiling. That’s a special quality. That’s a daily approach and that’s continuous improvement, being committed to excellence, what is our weekly rhythm, how do we get better, how do we continue to be great in the fundamentals and techniques that our coaches are trying to emphasize. “Excited to partner with him”.
