The Chargers will see a familiar face on the opposing sideline twice this season when they play the Raiders as Las Vegas is reportedly set to hire former Bolts head coach Mike McCoy as their assistant head coach. McCoy spent four seasons at the head of the Chargers and will now serve as a veteran voice in the ear of first-time head coach Klint Kubiak.
McCoy finished the 2025 season as the interim head coach of the Titans who fired Brian Callahan less than two years after his hire. Before being promoted in the interim, McCoy was a senior offensive assistant. Prior to joining the Titans staff, McCoy coached quarterbacks for the Jaguars from 2022-2024.
The former San Diego Chargers head coach took the team to the postseason in his first year with a 9-7 record. The Bolts finished 9-7 the next season, missing the playoffs, before finishing with records of 4-12 and 5-11 in his final two seasons.
