According to NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, Rams defensive pass game coordinator Aubrey Pleasant is being promoted to assistant head coach.

Schefter adds Pleasant is looked at as an HC candidate by the organization and the NFL, and this step could help him in the coaching cycle after the 2024 season.

Pleasant, 37, took his first college coaching job in 2012 with Michigan as their assistant DB coach. From there, he worked for the Browns and Washington before joining the Rams in 2017.

Pleasant has coached both sides of the ball and eventually settled in as the Rams’ CBs coach. Pleasant eventually landed with the Lions in 2021 as their defensive back coach and passing game coordinator.

From there, Pleasant finished out the remainder of the 2022 season as a consultant for Green Bay before rejoining the Rams in a new capacity.
