Sean McVay explains 'grumpy' demeanor after Rams' Ty Simpson pick

Friday night's all right for smiling, at least according to Sean McVay.

A day after the Los Angeles Rams head coach raised some eyebrows with his body language and demeanor during his post-draft media availability, McVay seemed to be sunshine and rainbows on Friday.

"What do you guys think, am I angry right now?," McVay said with a smile and a laugh as he took the podium during the Rams' post-draft press conference.

The head coach explained his seemingly "grumpy" demeanor in the aftermath of the surprising selection of Alabama quarterback Ty Simpson, saying "normal life" got in the way.

"There were other things that had nothing to do with that (the selection of Ty Simpson), that's normal life," McVay said. "The main thing was, I couldn't be more excited about being able to add him, but also understanding of, how much I love Matthew Stafford, how respectful you want to always be to just the way things can be interpreted.

"And, so, the demeanor would have been stoic by nature, because you are excited, but by no means, it is Matthew's football team, and we are excited to add Ty."
