Rams coach Sean McVay is likely celebrating his 33rd birthday in the most unique way - preparing to coach his NFL team in the Super Bowl.

McVay turned 33 Jan. 24 and will be the youngest head coach in Super Bowl history when his Los Angeles Rams face the New England Patriots Feb. 3 in Super Bowl LIII at Mercedes-Benz Stadium.
