McVay and the Rams went through the worst season by a reigning NFL championship team. The Rams were riddled with injuries and finished 5-12, ahead of only the Arizona Cardinals in the NFC West.
McVay said after the season he would take a few days to decide whether he wants to continue as coach.
He has made that call and it looks like a future in the broadcast booth will have to wait another season.
The news comes after a cryptic tweet from star DB Jalen Ramsey.
