Less than 24 hours after a loss to the San Francisco 49ers cemented a dismal 2-14 season, the St. Louis Rams have fired head coach Steve Spagnuolo, Fox Sports insider and NFL Network contributor Jay Glazer reported.
Not long after Spagnuolo's firing, a league source told NFL Network's Michael Lombardi that the Rams also fired general manager Billy Devaney. Devaney went 12-52 in his four years as the Rams' GM.
Spagnuolo and the Rams came within one win from a playoff berth last year -- his second season as the Rams' head coach -- but the team fell apart this season amid a slew of injuries and uninspired performances.
The Rams ended the year on a seven-game losing streaks as speculation swirled that Spagnuolo would be let go at the end of the season.
Spagnuolo went 10-38 in his three years with the Rams.
