Steelers offensive coordinator Arthur Smith continues to draw interest from a number of NFL teams in the 2026 hiring cycle.
Per a report from NFL Network’s Ian Rapoport, the Los Angeles Chargers requested
an interview with Smith for their vacant offensive coordinator position.
Los Angeles fired coordinator Greg Roman following a first-round playoff exit.
The Chargers join the Detroit Lions in showing interest in Smith for an offensive coordinator job, which would be a lateral move for him, coming from the same role on the Steelers. The Tennessee Titans and Arizona Cardinals, on the other hand, have requested interviews with Smith for their respective head coaching jobs.
Last week, the Pittsburgh Post-Gazette’s Gerry Dulac reported that the Steelers’ current coaching staff is free to pursue other opportunities as Pittsburgh searches for a successor to Mike Tomlin.
