Liam Coen Officially Announced As Kentucky Offensive Coordinator
The Los Angeles Rams will be on a hunt for a new play caller over the next few weeks, with offensive coordinator Liam Coen being officially announced for the same position at the college level with the Kentucky Wildcats.
The announcement comes just two days after the end of a disastrous regular season for the Rams, in which they went 5-12 and had one of the worst offenses in the NFL.
Coen spent just one season and now heads back to Lexington, where he was the offensive coordinator & quarterbacks coach for the Wildcats in 2021.
