In Saturday’s preseason game against the Chargers, Pleasant will again take that inclusive approach, serving as the Rams’ head coach for the evening. It’s a role he served last preseason, too, as head coach Sean McVay gives Pleasant a platform to work toward his career goals both in August but during the season, too.

The Rams and Cowboys won't play each other in the regular season, making this their lone matchup of 2025 unless they meet in the playoffs. Both teams are resting their top players, including Matthew Stafford, Davante Adams, Dak Prescott and CeeDee Lamb, so it'll mostly be backups running the show.
