Since winning the Super Bowl, the Los Angeles Rams’ coaching staff has already undergone plenty of shuffling – a yearly tradition for Sean McVay’s group. Kevin O’Connell, Ejiro Evero and now Wes Phillips have all left, but the good news is that Thomas Brown and Zac Robinson will both be back. - According to Ian Rapoport of NFL Network, the Rams expect Brown to return to McVay’s staff this year after he drew interest from teams as a head coach candidate and offensive coordinator target. Additionally, Robinson will remain with the Rams with a better title, though Rapoport didn’t specify what his role will be. - - Meanwhile, the #Rams are expecting assistant HC Thomas Brown to return to their staff, while assistant QBs coach Zac Robinson will stay in LA with a better title. That leaves the vacant OC spot, with Kentucky’s Liam Coen as a top candidate. - — Ian Rapoport (@RapSheet) February 21, 2022 - - - Brown was the Rams’ running backs coach and assistant head coach in 2021, doing an excellent job in both roles. McVay regularly praised him on a weekly basis. He interviewed for the Vikings’ OC position – which went to Phillips – and also met with the Dolphins for their head coaching role before Mike McDaniel was hired. - Robinson just completed his third season with the Rams as the assistant quarterbacks coach. The Rams didn’t have a quarterbacks coach in 2021 due to O’Connell working closely with the QBs in his role as the offensive coordinator. - Liam Coen is a top candidate to replace O’Connell as the Rams’ offensive coordinator, according to Rapoport. He was their assistant QBs coach in 2020 before leaving to be Kentucky’s offensive coordinator last year. - - List - - Who should the Rams host in 2022 season opener? - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Email - - - - - Sign up - - - - - - - - Like this article? - Sign up for the Rams Wire email newsletter to get our top stories in your inbox every morning - - - - An error has occured - - - Please re-enter your email address. - - - - - - Thanks for signing up! - - - You'll now receive the top Rams Wire stories each day directly in your inbox.
