Chargers head coach Jim Harbaugh is making some bold moves to revamp his offense this offseason, but he's keeping a couple of key pieces in place. Wide receivers coach Sanjay Lal and quarterbacks coach Shane Day are sticking around, according to ESPN's Jeremy Fowler.
After the season, Harbaugh decided to part ways with offensive coordinator Greg Roman. Roman, a longtime ally who had worked alongside Harbaugh with the 49ers and at Stanford, is being replaced by Mike McDaniel. This marks a major shift in the Chargers' offensive strategy as Harbaugh enters his third year at the helm.
By retaining Lal and Day, Harbaugh is ensuring some continuity for an offensive unit poised to elevate its game under the leadership of Justin Herbert in 2026. The combination of fresh ideas from McDaniel and the existing rapport with Lal and Day could be just what the Chargers need to make a leap forward.
