But one coach the Rams aren't letting getaway is assistant secondary coach Jonathan Cooley. The Rams have blocked the Vikings' request to interview Cooley, according to The Athletic's Jourdan Rodrigue.
Cooley held the title of the Rams' assistant defensive backs coach for the 2021 season but could be in store for a promotion as McVay shows a strong endorsement to keep him on the staff.
The Rams already lost secondary coach and defensive pass game coordinator Ejiro Evero to the Broncos, where he'll serve as Denver's defensive coordinator under new head coach Nathaniel Hackett.
