Chargers coach Jim Harbaugh looking for 'fresh start' on offense after firing longtime OC

Chargers coach Jim Harbaugh looking for 'fresh start' on offense after firing longtime OC

Our Summary

The Los Angeles Chargers have dismissed offensive coordinator Greg Roman after a series of disappointing playoff performances. Under Roman, the Chargers' offense scored only 15 points over two playoff games, prompting head coach Jim Harbaugh to seek a new direction. Harbaugh acknowledged Roman's contributions but emphasized the need for change to advance quarterback Justin Herbert and the team's offensive capabilities. Despite challenges such as injuries and frequent changes in the offensive line, Harbaugh stressed that playoff success remains the priority. The Chargers ranked 20th in points per game and 12th in yards per game for the 2025 season. As the team looks for new leadership on offense, defensive coordinator Jesse Minter is also being considered for head-coaching positions, indicating potential changes on both sides of the ball.
