After being drafted by the Rams, quarterback Ty Simpson initially downplayed his interactions with the team’s scouts. However, he later revealed that he had a secret meeting with Rams coach Sean McVay before the draft. Simpson said they had multiple secret meetings to discuss football at length. He was instructed to keep these meetings confidential to avoid tipping off other teams who might trade up to pick him. Simpson’s decision to reveal the meetings now may be due to a desire to address any doubts about McVay’s commitment to selecting him. Despite initial speculation, the Rams ultimately drafted Simpson, solidifying their interest in the young quarterback.
