The Rams, like the 31 other teams in the NFL, are trying to make the most of this modified offseason. The coronavirus pandemic has prevented them from getting on the field and in the weight room, limiting players and coaches to meeting strictly over video conference calls.
Sean McVay is doing his best to keep everyone focused and interested, even bringing in guest speakers during the virtual offseason program. First it was Doc Rivers last month, and now it’s Peyton Manning.
Manning spoke to the team on Thursday, which players seemed to appreciate. Sebastian Joseph-Day and Micah Kiser both tweeted about Manning’s visit, which Kiser called “absolutely incredible.”
According to Gary Klein of the L.A. Times, Manning talked to the team for about 30 minutes, and then spent another half-hour taking questions from players. With Manning’s knowledge of the game, being able to pick his brain must’ve been a treat for the Rams.
