Rams Fire Wade Phillips
5 years agoThe Los Angeles Rams fired defensive coordinator Wade Phillips on Monday, according to a person with knowledge of the situation. The Rams Defense wasn't terrible in 2019, but changes were expected to be made after missing the postseason following their Super Bowl run a year ago. LA allowed 339.6 yards per game (13th in the NFL) and 24.6 points per game (11th) while totaling 50 sacks (fourth) and 13 interceptions (12th). Having shutdown cornerback Jalen Ramsey available for a full season should go a long way in 2020.
