Report: Chargers request to interview Joe Lombardi for offensive coordinator position

The Los Angeles Chargers are looking to bring in the New Orleans Saints’ quarterbacks coach.

The Chargers are hard at work to fill out the coaching staff behind head coach Brandon Staley.

A candidate for the offensive coordinator position is Saints quarterbacks coach Joe Lombardi.

According to The Athletic’s Jeff Duncan, Los Angeles has requested to interview Lombardi for the vacancy.

Lombardi finished his fifth consecutive season with New Orleans. Before that, he spent two stints returned as the offensive coordinator for the Lions.

There’s some familarity between Staley and Lombardi, as Staley played quarterback for Mercyhurst College while Lombardi was the offensive coordinator there back in 2005.
