Rams coach Sean McVay hired his former boss in Washington, Jay Gruden, as a consultant, ESPN’s Sarah Barshop reported Thursday.
The former Commanders coach was seen at the Rams practice on Thursday, although his role will include mostly remote work.
McVay worked under Gruden in Washington as an offensive coordinator during the three seasons Gruden worked as head coach. Gruden stayed in his role in Washington until midway through the 2019 season. He then worked as the offensive coordinator for the Jaguars in 2020.
Washington wasn’t their first working experience together, though.
