The Los Angeles Rams were initially founded in 1936 in Cleveland and played in the AFL for one season before joining the NFL in 1946.
In 1946 the team then moved to Los Angeles and the city became the first in the West Coast to host an NFL team as the Rams played in the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum.
