Rams player clips Sean McVay with helmet while running onto field

Sean McVay took quite a shot from one of his own players

It has been a tough year for the Super Bowl-champion Rams.

Injuries to Matthew Stafford, Cooper Kupp, and many others have wrecked any hopes of a repeat.

And after Sunday, their coach Sean McVay may find himself in concussion protocol.

Roger Carter Jr. was running onto the field with the special-teams unit when his helmet make solid contact with the head coach’s face.

McVay looked stunned and immediately turned away to try and pull himself together.

Would this be the first time an NFL coach appears on an injury report? Par for the course in the Rams’ 2022 season.

It is more painful to watch in slow-motion.
