He could be next on the Sean McVay coaching tree.
Los Angeles Rams Head Coach Sean McVay is widely regarded as one of the sharpest offensive minds in football and a great head coach.
Hired at 30 years old, McVay became the youngest head coach in NFL history to go to and win a Super Bowl.
Though he still isn’t 40 years old yet, McVay already has a growing coaching tree that includes offensive-minded head coaches Matt LeFleur (Green Bay Packers), Zac Taylor (Cincinnati Bengals), Kevin O’Connell (Minnesota Vikings), and Liam Coen (Jacksonville Jaguars).
Scheelhaase could be next, and McVay spoke highly of him in December.
“He’s a great coach,” McVay said, per SI.com. “He has great leadership, great capacity for the game, similar to a lot of our other great coaches. First and foremost, he has great character. There’s an ability to be able to connect with all different types.
“There’s an ability to own the game from an all-22 perspective. He’s excellent. I’ve really enjoyed working with him. He’s a great person, first and foremost, and he has a great family. He’s been outstanding, working with the receivers, but he has a tremendous impact on our team and our group as a whole.”
