The Los Angeles Rams had a few visitors in Thousand Oaks for Wednesday’s practice, all from the USC football program. Kliff Kingsbury, who’s an assistant coach on Lincoln Riley’s staff, was the most notable of the three USC coaches at OTAs this week.
Tight ends coach Zach Hanson and assistant head coach/passing game coordinator Dennis Simmons were also in attendance at Rams practice. Kingsbury and Sean McVay are good friends, and now that Kingsbury is out of the NFL, their football paths can cross more freely without conflict.

The Rams aren’t tanking, and they might not be bad enough to land the No. 1 overall pick in the draft in 2024, but perhaps McVay gained some insight on Caleb Williams from USC’s trio of coaches.
Again, the Rams hope they aren’t bad enough to land Williams at the top of the draft, but if they somehow finish worse than Kingsbury’s former team, the Cardinals, the 2022 Heisman Trophy winner is a perfect heir to Matthew Stafford’s throne in Los Angeles.
