Report: Chargers expected to hire Derrick Foster as running backs coach

The Los Angeles Chargers will have a new running backs coach.

The Chargers coaching staff is nearly complete.

According to AL.com’s Matt Zenitz, Los Angeles is expected to hire former Iowa running backs coach Derrick Foster in the same role.

Hired back in 2018, Foster led a running back group that included first-team All-Big Ten running back Tyler Goodson this past season.

Foster served as running backs coach and running game coordinator at Samford University in 2015 and 2016.

He has also coached wide receivers and running backs at Tennessee, Northwestern State University, and Valdosta State University.
