In Week 2, first-year Head Coach SEAN McVAY will face his former team as the Washington Redskins travel to Los Angeles for the first time since 1994. In addition to the Rams’ NFC West opponents, LA will play each franchise in the NFC East and AFC South, including four teams that made the 2017 playoffs.

“The NFL schedule release is one of the most anticipated events for football fans and we’re looking forward to opening the 2017 season with two games at home,” McVay said. “Our fans give us one of the best home field advantages in the National Football League and we’re excited to get in front of them at the Coliseum this fall.”

The Rams are 48-28-3 in home openers and own a 40-39 record overall in Week 1. This year’s opener vs. the Colts marks the teams’ 19^th meeting at the Coliseum.

After two weeks on the road, the Rams come home to the Coliseum to host the defending NFC West Champion Seattle Seahawks on Oct. 8.
