Chargers will interview Mike McDaniel for offensive coordinator

Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh is considering Mike McDaniel, the former Dolphins head coach, for the role of offensive coordinator. The Chargers plan to interview McDaniel next week, as reported by Ian Rapoport of NFL Network. McDaniel, who was let go by the Dolphins last week, has been actively interviewing for various coaching positions. Previously, McDaniel served as the Dolphins' head coach for four years and was the offensive coordinator for the 49ers. Despite being recognized as a talented offensive strategist, his reputation was affected by the lack of development of quarterback Tua Tagovailoa in Miami. Harbaugh is evaluating whether McDaniel can effectively develop an offense centered around Chargers quarterback Justin Herbert, as the team aims to secure a playoff victory for the first time since Herbert joined.
