Published January 31, 2017

FOXBOROUGH, Mass. (AP) The Los Angeles Rams have given coach Jeff Fisher a contract extension.

Rams spokesman Artis Twyman confirmed the move before Sunday's game against the New England Patriots. The deal was first reported by the NFL Network, which said it was a two-year extension through 2018.

Twyman said he couldn't comment on terms of the deal. He said, ''I think that's something coach Fisher will discuss after the game.''

In his fifth season with the Rams, the first four in St. Louis, Fisher has presided over a 31-43-1 record. They have yet to finish above .500 in his tenure and they haven't made the playoffs since 2004.
