The Los Angeles Rams have already lost multiple assistant coaches this offseason but Nate Scheelhaase isn’t going anywhere. The key 34-year-old offensive assistant is returning to the Rams despite drawing interest from the Jaguars and Buccaneers in their search for an offensive coordinator.
Ian Rapoport of NFL Network reported the news of Scheelhaase’s return to the Rams.
Scheelhaase just finished his first season with the Rams, which was also his first season in the NFL. He held the title of offensive assistant and pass game specialist for the Rams, working closely with Sean McVay and the other offensive coaches on the staff.

It’s unclear if the Rams gave Scheelhaase a promotion or a raise to keep him in Los Angeles, but he’ll be returning to McVay’s staff nonetheless. He’s a rising coach to watch next offseason for teams looking to hire an offensive coordinator.
