Nate Scheelhaase, the Los Angeles Rams’ offensive coordinator, will call plays in their preseason opener against the Kansas City Chiefs, marking a significant step in his rapid rise within the coaching ranks. Promoted in February after serving as passing game coordinator, Scheelhaase is viewed as a head-coaching candidate due to his success, including overseeing the NFL’s top passing attack last season. This opportunity allows him to gain valuable experience as he manages an offense featuring rookie quarterbacks Stetson Bennett IV and Ty Simpson. His trajectory mirrors that of previous Rams coordinators who became NFL head coaches.
