McVay talked about his newborn baby in a Wednesday news conference as the Rams prepare for their Week 8 game at Dallas.
“He’s here, he’s healthy, he’s feeling good, and what a blessing it is.”
In the weeks leading up to the birth, McVay indicated that if the baby was born on game day, he would miss the game.
He later said the baby would not come on game day which turned out to be a correct prediction.
#Rams HC Sean McVay on possibly missing a game for the birth of his son: “I’m not going to miss a game. My son knows better than to come during a game.”
