With the <a href=\"https:\/\/bolavip.com\/en\/nfl\/matthew-stafford-makes-major-revelation-about-his-future-after-winning-the-2025-nfl-mvp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener nofollow\" class=\"break-word font-articleLinkText text-articleLinkText hover:text-articleLinkTextHover hover:bg-articleLinkTextHoverBg cursor-pointer border-solid border-b-articleLinkTextHover\">veteran quarterback making a big revelation about his future<\/a>, the Rams are wasting no time in surrounding him with additional support on Sean McVay\u2019s coaching staff.<\/p>\n<p data-testid=\"paragraph\" class=\"mb-[20px] md:mb-[30px] break-word\">Just one day after Stafford confirmed he would continue playing next season, Los Angeles hired Kliff Kingsbury, the former offensive coordinator of the Washington Commanders. The move signals a clear commitment to strengthening the offense and maximizing Stafford\u2019s MVP-level performance.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/kliff-kingsbury-washington-1920x1080.webp.webp\" width=\"1920\" height=\"1080\" alt=\"Kliff Kingsbury with headset during a game\" class=\"h-auto\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/p>\n<p class=\"text-center mt-5 text-[14px] leading-[20px] font-normal\">Kliff Kingsbury on the sidelines during a Commanders game.<\/p>\n<p>Will Kliff Kingsbury be the Rams\u2019 offensive coordinator?<\/p>\n<p data-testid=\"paragraph\" class=\"mb-[20px] md:mb-[30px] break-word\">NFL insider Adam Schefter reported Friday that Kingsbury will indeed join the Rams for the 2026 season. However, multiple reports indicate that he will not take over as the team\u2019s offensive coordinator.<\/p>\n<p data-testid=\"paragraph\" class=\"mb-[20px] md:mb-[30px] break-word\">Kingsbury\u2019s exact role has not yet been disclosed, suggesting that he will not fill the vacancy left by Mike LaFleur. As things stand, the Rams\u2019 search for a new offensive coordinator appears to be ongoing.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Sean McVay gives clear expectations on Rams after Matthew Stafford confirmed return next season\" href=\"https:\/\/bolavip.com\/en\/nfl\/sean-mcvay-gives-clear-expectations-on-rams-after-matthew-stafford-confirmed-return-next-season\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" class=\"article-also-read-embed\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aspect-square max-w-[100px] m-[10px] md:m-0\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/02\/sean-mcvay-200x200.webp.webp\" alt=\"Sean McVay gives clear expectations on Rams after Matthew Stafford confirmed return next season\" width=\"200\" height=\"200\" loading=\"lazy\"\/><\/p>\n<p class=\"font-secondary my-[13px] uppercase text-alsoReadSeeAlso bg-alsoReadSeeAlsoBackground alsoReadSeeAlso w-fit\">see also<\/p>\n<p class=\"w-full line-clamp-3 md:line-clamp-2 text-alsoReadEmbedTitle font-primary alsoReadLink\">Sean McVay gives clear expectations on Rams after Matthew Stafford confirmed return next season<\/p>\n<p><\/a><\/p>\n<p data-testid=\"paragraph\" class=\"break-word\">The hire also reflects the long-standing connection between Kingsbury and McVay. Back in 2018, McVay reportedly attempted to bring Kingsbury onto his staff as an offensive assistant. That move never materialized, as Kingsbury instead accepted the Arizona Cardinals\u2019 head coaching position in 2019.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"leading-none\" href=\"https:\/\/bolavip.com\/en\/staff\/ffranco\" target=\"_self\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.rawchili.com\/nfl\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/ffranco.webp.webp\" alt=\"fernando franco puga\" width=\"80\" height=\"80\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"rounded-full\"\/><\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"text-[14px] leading-[20px] min-h-[72px] md:min-h-[52px] mt-[10px] font-authorSignatureDescription hidden md:block\">Fernando Franco is an accomplished writer and sports journalist who specializes in soccer, NFL, MLB, and MMA.
