There are many ways to celebrate a win, but this might be the most exciting one. Los Angeles Rams head coach Sean McVay rushed to the hospital late Sunday night after his team won a thrilling Week 15 game at SoFi Stadium. It was an emotional night that combined a big football win with an important family day.
The Rams beat the Detroit Lions 41-34 in a high-scoring game that stayed close until the end. Right after the final whistle, McVay left the stadium quickly and went straight to the hospital to be with his wife, Veronika Khomyn, as she prepared to give birth to their second child.
NFL insider Dov Kleiman shared the news afterwards.
“Congrats! Rams HC Sean McVay was rushed to the hospital last night to give birth to his second child with his wife, Veronika Khomyn,” Kleiman wrote. “The McVays are having their second baby boy. Congrats to the gorgeous couple.”
The night became even more special for the McVay family. Sean McVay and his wife, Veronika Khomyn, welcomed their second son on Sunday night. Their first child, Jordan, was born on October 24, 2023. The moment gave McVay a memory far bigger than any football result.

Just a week earlier, McVay had also dealt with an illness before the Rams’ Week 14 game against the Arizona Cardinals.
The win over Lions was also huge for the Rams. Los Angeles improved to 11-3 and became the first team in the NFC to get a playoff spot. The win kept the Rams in the race for the NFC West title heading into Week 16.
Matthew Stafford led the offense with 368 passing yards, two touchdowns, and one interception. Kyren Williams added 78 rushing yards and two touchdowns, while Blake Corum chipped in 71 yards and a score on limited carries.
Puka Nacua had a great night, catching nine passes for 181 yards. Colby Parkinson also made an impact with five catches for 75 yards and two touchdowns. Davante Adams played through injury concerns and finished with four catches for 71 yards.
The Rams now look ahead to a Thursday night game against the Seattle Seahawks. The game could decide first place in the NFC West and impact the NFL MVP race.
For Sean McVay, Sunday night had it all. A big win, a playoff spot, and the birth of another son.
