McVay Hopes Rams Never Return to Australia
18 Sep
Summary
- Coach McVay wishes for no future Australia games.
- Jet lag affected players and coaches after the long trip.
- NFL plans long-term presence in Australia despite travel issues.
Los Angeles Rams coach Sean McVay has made it clear he hopes the team never has to play in Australia again, despite acknowledging the positive atmosphere. He expressed a desire for the team to move forward, humorously suggesting a 'Men in Black' style memory wipe for the recent trip. The extensive travel proved taxing for both the Rams and the San Francisco 49ers, with 49ers coach Kyle Shanahan admitting to feeling unwell upon returning to California.
Despite the travel fatigue experienced by players and coaches, Rams quarterback Matthew Stafford reported minimal jet lag and readiness for upcoming games. Meanwhile, NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell has indicated that the league intends to establish a long-term presence in Australia, viewing the venture as a significant investment in the market rather than a one-off event.
