Sean McVay says Rams won't lose sleep over failed backward pass rule

Rams head coach Sean McVay says he won't lose sleep if a proposed rule change regarding backward passes is rejected by the league.

Rams head coach Sean McVay stated he won't lose sleep if a proposed rule change regarding backward passes is rejected. The Rams submitted the proposal to treat tipped backward passes similarly to fumbles, specifically preventing favorable advancement.

McVay noted the play is rare but did affect their Week 16 matchup against the Seahawks, emphasizing the change would have applied to situations like the end of the half or two-point attempts.
