The St. Louis Rams, who have been looking for an offensive coordinator for a month, reportedly will promote quarterbacks coach Frank Cignetti to that position.

Per Ian Rapoport of NFL Media, Cignetti will assume the job next week. He will replace Brian Schottenheimer, who left the Rams on Jan. 7 to become offensive coordinator at Georgia.

The Rams have been rebuffed in many attempts to find a coordinator elsewhere. The Indianapolis Colts would not allow them to talk to special assistant Rob Chudzinski and the Green Bay Packers would not let quarterbacks coach Alex Van Pelt speak with them.

Former Buffalo Bills coordinator Nathaniel Hackett decided to join former Bills coach Doug Marrone in Jacksonville as Gus Bradley’s quarterbacks coach.

Cignetti had interviewed late last month with the Cleveland Browns for their offensive coordinator position, which went to former Oakland Raiders quarterbacks coach John DeFilippo.

Cignetti has run offenses for five college teams, last working for Rutgers before Jeff Fisher hired him in 2012 when Fisher came to St. Louis.

The Rams’ offense has not ranked higher than 21st in any of the past three seasons.
