Jeff Fisher will lead the Los Angeles Rams beyond their first season back in the City of Angels.

NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, citing sources, first reported Sunday morning that the team reached an agreement with Fisher on a two-year contract extension. ESPN’s Adam Schefter confirmed the report, while citing sources stating that general manager Les Snead also signed an extension. 

Rapoport, citing a source, reported Fisher and the Rams agreed to the extension during the preseason, but Fisher didn’t officially sign it until the regular season.

“A contract extension does not give Jeff Fisher any more job security. Rams must win and play well down stretch or his job will be in danger,” noted Schefter.

Although the 58-year-old was in the middle of the final year of his original deal, the news comes as somewhat of a surprise. After a 3-1 start to open the 2016-17 campaign, the Rams are 4-7 entering Week 13.
