Chargers Plan To Hire Anthony Lynn 

Post#1 » by RealGM Wiretap » Fri Jan 13, 2017 5:28 am

The Los Angeles Chargers plan to hire Anthony Lynn as their next head coach.

A deal is "unofficial, but in the works," a source tells ESPN's Josina Anderson.

Lynn would be the Chargers' 16th head coach in franchise history and the team's first African-American head coach. He had a second interview scheduled with the Chargers on Thursday.

Lynn, 48, was one of six candidates initially interviewed by the Chargers. The others included Sean McDermott, hired as the Bills head coach, New England Patriots defensive coordinator Matt Patricia, Tampa Bay Buccaneers defensive coordinator Mike Smith, Kansas City Chiefs special teams coordinator Dave Toub and Detroit Lions defensive coordinator Teryl Austin.
