It’s trending towards Bills offensive coordinator Brian Daboll being the next head coach of the Chargers.
According to ESPN’s Adam Schefter, Daboll has emerged as the favorite for the vacancy.
Los Angeles wouldn’t be able to hire Daboll until Buffalo is officially out from postseason play.
If the Bills beat the Ravens tonight, L.A. would have to wait. However, if Buffalo loses to Baltimore, the Bolts could hire Daboll as early as tomorrow.
The main reason why Daboll is the hot candidate is because of what he has done for the development of quarterback Josh Allen. Daboll has taken and molded Allen into a complete player at his position and an MVP candidate.
The hope would be that he would be able to do the same with QB Justin Herbert by maximizing his full potential.
Daboll could also be the favorite due to the familiarity with general manager Tom Telesco. Daboll and Telesco went to the same Buffalo-area high school (St. Francis High School), and they have the same agent, Bob Lamonte.
