Chargers Officially Hire Mike McDaniel as Offensive Coordinator
The Los Angeles Chargers officially hired former Miami Dolphins head coach Mike McDaniel as their new offensive coordinator, a source told Daniel Popper of The Athletic. McDaniel and the Chargers agreed on a deal almost a week ago, but he was still holding out hope of landing another head-coaching job. The Chargers will introduce McDaniel in the coming days as he takes over for previous OC Greg Roman. The Dolphins fired McDaniel after he led the team to a 7-10 record in 2025, and he immediately became a popular head-coaching candidate and potential OC around the league. He should bring some creativity to the Chargers' offense under head coach Jim Harbaugh after they fell short again in the Wild-Card round of the playoffs with a loss to the New England Patriots. The hiring of McDaniel should be good news for quarterback Justin Herbert.
