Sean McVay’s refashioned Rams coaching staff has taken shape.
The Rams officially promoted Nate Scheelhaase to offensive coordinator on Monday, with Dave Ragone serving as co-offensive coordinator and quarterbacks coach, the team announced.
Scheelhaase, 35, replaces Mike LaFleur, who was hired as head coach by the Arizona Cardinals.
He started two Super Bowls, winning one, and provided sage wisdom and experience for younger players in what would be his final season in 2025.
McVay will remain the Rams’ play-caller.
Scheelhaase joined the Rams’ staff as an offensive assistant in 2024. He served as passing game coordinator last season and was interviewed by several teams for head coach positions.
Ragone, 48, has been the Rams’ quarterbacks coach since 2024. He was the Atlanta Falcons’ offensive coordinator before joining the Rams’ staff.
Kliff Kingsbury, former head coach of the Arizona Cardinals and most recently the Washington Commanders offensive coordinator, is the assistant head coach. Brian Johnson, former Commanders assistant head coach and pass game coordinator, is a senior offensive assistant.
Robert Woods, a veteran receiver who signed a one-day contract with the Rams last week to retire with the team, is the assistant receivers coach under Eric Yarber — now a senior offensive assistant — and Rob Calabrese.
Former Rams offensive lineman Brian Allen, a consultant last season, is now an assistant offensive line coach.
Aubrey Pleasant, the Rams’ defensive backs coach and assistant head coach the last three seasons, is not listed on the staff. Pleasant interviewed this offseason with several teams for defensive coordinator positions. Jimmy Lake is the defensive backs coach, Michael Hunter the assistant.
