ST. LOUIS — Jeff Fisher says he is ready for the challenge in St. Louis.
Fisher was formally introduced as the new coach of the Rams on Tuesday. He also interviewed for the head coaching job at Miami, but went with the rebuilding job in St. Louis.
Fisher says his decision was an easy one because he and the owners share a “collective vision” on how to restore the Rams to what he calls a place of significance.
The Rams went 2-14 last season. Fisher replaces the fired Steve Spagnuolo.
