The Los Angeles Rams are losing an important member of their coaching staff. According to NFL Network, the Carolina Panthers are hiring Rams assistant head coach and TEs coach Thomas Brown as their new offensive coordinator.
Brown had his second interview with the Panthers on Thursday and will now work out a deal with Carolina as the OC. The Buccaneers also met with Brown this week but opted to go in a different direction, which allowed the Panthers to land the promising young coach.
The Rams hired Brown as their running backs coach in 2020 and added the title of assistant head coach in 2021. Last year, he was moved to tight ends coach, though midway through the season, he helped coach the running backs again.
