The Chargers are reportedly adding yet another former Dolphins coach as former Miami run game specialist Chandler Henley is expected to join Los Angeles’ coaching staff, per CBS Sports’ Matt Zenitz.
Henley
has spent the past four seasons under Mike McDaniel and he’s got a rather impressive resume in regards to elite running back seasons.
From 2018-2020, Henley was a part of a Titan coaching staff that helped current Ravens star running back Derrick Henry record a 2,027-yard season. In 2021, his lone year with the Falcons, Henley helped wide receiver-turned-running back Cordarrelle Patterson reach 1,166 yards total yards of offense and 11 total touchdowns. Then with the Dolphins, Henley helped third-year back De’Von Achane reach 1,838 yards of offense and 12 total touchdowns in 2025.
I truly believe this is a great hire by the Chargers and keeping McDaniel’s offensive staff as familiar as possible in hopes of churning out similar, productive results is the right process. With a back like Omarion Hampton, it’s hard not to get excited about the 2026 season that could be in front of him.
