Will Los Angeles Rams coach Sean McVay retire after their Super Bowl win?
There’s been a lot of speculation about Los Angeles Rams coach Sean McVay’s possible retirement after the Super Bowl. His fiancé has put this issue to rest.
Is he or isn’t he?
There has been a lot of buzz about the possibility of Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay retiring soon, and these rumors began last week.
In the days leading up to the Super Bowl, McVay hinted at possibly leaving his Rams job, saying that he wanted to focus on his family life, and maybe move to a career in broadcasting.
McVay's pronouncements
Shortly before the big game, the 36-year-old spoke to ESPN about getting married this summer and wanting to find a balance between work and his family.
“I know I love football and I’m so invested in this thing and I’m in the moment right now. But at some point, too, if you said what do you want to be able to do? I want to be able to have a family and I want to be able to spend time with them,” he said.

After the Rams’ Super Bowl win, he had an ambiguous response when The Los Angeles Times asked him if he would continue to be the head coach of the team in the coming season.
“We’ll see,” was his response. “I’m just enjoying this moment right now. I’m really happy to be a part of this.”
Mixed signals
Then, during the Rams’ Super Bowl parade, he chanted “Run it back! Run it back!!” on the mic, indicating that it was possible for him to have another go at the Lombardi trophy next season.
None of these pronouncements seem particularly definitive, but McVay’s fiancé Veronica Khomyn had an unequivocal statement on the matter. In an Instagram story, she posted “And no, He is NOT retiring!!!”
Five words that put the issue to rest.
