Henderson, whose contract was set to expire, helped the Rams to
a 23-20 victory over the Cincinnati Bengals in the Super Bowl
earlier this month. Donald, from his defensive tackle position,
harassed Bengals quarterback Joe Burrow into an incompletion on
fourth down in the final minute to seal Los Angeles' victory.
The Rams still need to add an assistant defensive line coach
after Marcus Dixon departed for the Denver Broncos to be their
defensive line coach.
Henderson joined the Rams in 2019 and added running-game
coordinator duties this past season. He was the assistant
defensive line coach for the Los Angeles Chargers in 2017 and
2018. Terms of his extension were not reported.
Henderson, a native of New Orleans and a former defensive end at
Georgia Tech, played two games for the Bengals in 2008.
