Coaching In NFL A 'Dream' For New Rams Coach Joe Coniglio
As the Los Angeles Rams prepare for next season, they do so hoping to bounce back from a rather disappointing 2022 that saw them go 5-12 and miss the playoffs a year after winning the Super Bowl.
When you seemingly go from 100 to 0 in a year, changes will be made. The Rams were no exception, as they made sweeping changes to Sean McVay's coaching staff once their season was over.
One of the coaching changes was the firing of outside linebackers coach Thad Bogardus. On Wednesday, though, the Baltimore Sun reported that the Rams are hiring Navy assistant Joe Coniglio to fill the position.
Coniglio was set to be Navy's special teams coach this upcoming season but instead will head to Los Angeles and join McVay's staff.
“It’s been a dream and a goal of mine to coach in the NFL," Coniglio told the Sun. "I am getting the opportunity to be a position coach when I first get there, which does not happen often."
"I thought this was an opportunity I could not turn down."
The Rams have talent at the outside linebacker position, and will hope the hire of Coniglio can help elevate them to the next level.
