Sean McVay was visibly frustrated on the field late in the Los Angeles Rams' loss to the Denver Broncos, and that frustration spilled into his postgame responsibilities. McVay, who is usually great with the media during his press conferences, ducked out of his media session early following Sunday night's loss.
According to Nate Atkins of The Athletic, he left his presser before reporters could even get into asking questions. The Rams' stream of his press conference shows McVay saying, "He's OK," pausing for a few seconds, and then leaving with his patented, "All right, thanks guys" sign-off, taping the sides of the lectern with both hands.
It's unclear how many questions were asked before he left, or which player he was referring to when he said,
"He's OK."
Atkins, for one, says he doesn't think he's ever seen that in all his years of covering the NFL.
Sean McVay ducked out of his press conference before Rams media could get into it, only 10 minutes after the final whistle.

Not sure I have ever seen that in this league before.
It's obviously not a great look for McVay, but the frustration is understandable. His team blew a 16-point lead in the second half to lose a heartbreaker, 30-26. The controversial pass interference penalty on Josh Wallace only added to his anger.
Had a penalty not been called, Wallace would've sealed the game with a spectacular interception. But the ref threw a flag, and the Broncos scored the game-winner a few plays later.
