Rams head coach Sean McVay plans to be with his wife when she gives birth to the couple’s first child and will miss Los Angeles’ home game Sunday against the Arizona Cardinals if the events overlap.

On Friday, McVay said his wife, Veronika, is due to deliver a boy “any day now.”

The couple married in June 2022.

“Really feel fortunate that it’s been a smooth pregnancy, my wife has been incredible and, so, it hasn’t quite hit me yet,” McVay, 37, said. “He’s active right now. It seems like he’s ready to come at any moment. What a blessing that will be.”

McVay did not reveal who would act as head coach in his absence for the Rams (2-3).
