I was surprised to hear McVay convey what #NFL ops said. Thought maybe the #NFL was issuing 2-minute style #NBA reports Via @TroyRenck on X

What happened: Troy Renck said he was surprised McVay relayed what NFL operations told Los Angeles about the disputed pass interference call. The remark followed McVay's disclosure that the league told the Rams the call was wrong, turning an officiating explanation into a broader debate over confidentiality.

Why it matters: The issue keeps league transparency and officiating accountability in focus as the Rams move through Week 4. It also highlights how quickly internal explanations can become a public story when a coach shares feedback the NFL typically treats as private.

What to watch: Watch for any league response on whether clubs are reminded to keep those conversations private. The Rams also carry the fallout from the call into Sunday's game.
