The Los Angeles Chargers interviewed Tennessee Titans tight ends coach Luke Steckel for their offensive coordinator position on Thursday. The Chargers are also expected to interview Greg Olson and Zac Robinson for the position after firing Joe Lombardi following their early playoff exit. Steckel is the son of long-time NFL assistant Les Steckel, and he has been coaching with Tennessee since 2013. It's unclear if the Titans are considering Steckel for their open offensive coordinator position after they fired Todd Downing at the end of the regular season. With players like quarterback Justin Herbert, running back Austin Ekeler and wide receivers Keenan Allen and Mike Williams, the Chargers OC job is one of the most interesting.
The Los Angeles Chargers announced on Wednesday that they completed an interview with Jerrod Johnson for the team's vacant offensive coordinator position. The 34-year-old Johnson is a former NFL quarterback and is currently the assistant quarterbacks coach for the Minnesota Vikings. He previously served as the offensive quality control coach of the Indianapolis Colts from 2020-2021. Since firing Joe Lombardi, the Chargers have also interviewed Los Angeles Rams quarterbacks coach and pass game coordinator Zac Robinson as well as Rams senior offensive assistant Greg Olson for the job.
The Los Angeles Chargers have requested permission to interview Buffalo Bills quarterbacks coach Joe Brady for their offensive coordinator position, according to sources. Brady has multiple requests as an offensive coordinator this cycle, but it's unclear if he will leave Buffalo. The Chargers are seeking a new offensive coordinator after firing Joe Lombardi following the 2022 season. The New York Jets also requested to speak with Brady. He served as the Carolina Panthers' offensive coordinator in 2020 after taking LSU to a national title in 2019, but he was fired in 2021. The Bolts have already interviewed Zac Robinson and are expected to interview Thomas Brown, Greg Olson and Luke Steckel for the position.
The Los Angeles Chargers will interview Los Angeles Rams senior offensive assistant Greg Olson for their offensive coordinator position on Tuesday, according to a source. Olson is one of the most experienced offensive coordinators around. Olson joined the Rams in 2022 after four seasons as the Las Vegas Raiders' offensive coordinator. He has also served as an offensive coordinator for the Jacksonville Jaguars, Tampa Bay Buccaneers, Rams and Detroit Lions over two decades as an NFL assistant. The Rams are also looking for an offensive coordinator, but it's unknown if they are considering Olson for the job. The Chargers current offense is one of the most attractive in the league with young quarterback Justin Herbert, and do-it-all running back Austin Ekeler in the backfield.
The Los Angeles Chargers will interview Tennessee Titans tight ends coach Luke Steckel for their offensive coordinator position this week, according to sources. The 37-year-old Princeton graduate is highly intelligent and widely respected by players and peers. The Chargers are looking to replace Joe Lombardi after firing him following the 2022 season. In addition to Steckel, the Bolts will interview Los Angeles Rams senior offensive assistant Greg Olson for the same job this week. Steckel is the son of long-time NFL assistant Les Steckel and has been with the Titans since 2013. It's unclear if Tennessee is considering a promotion for Steckel as they also look to fill their offensive coordinator position after firing Todd Downing.
