Just a few updates on the status of the Chargers coaching staff. We have hired some quality coaches and it is nice to have gotten this aspect of offseason improvements over with rather quickly. I especially would like to note Rob Chudzinski, who was our TE coach during 2005 and 2006, two of Gates' biggest years. Chudzinski was being considered for head coaching jobs around the league and I'm glad (but also a little surprised) that we picked him up.

Rob Chudzinski is coming back -- and he has some added responsibility.
The Chargers' tight ends coach in 2005 and 2006, Chudzinski is close to being named to coach that position after two seasons as Cleveland's offensive coordinator, and he will be the assistant head coach as well this time. Chudzinski spent 10 seasons (1994-2003) as an assistant at his alma mater, the University of Miami, and one season with the Browns before coming to San Diego the first time.
Cleveland's assistant line coach Mike Sullivan also has been hired to fill that role with the Chargers. Sullivan played five seasons in the NFL for three teams (Dolphins, Cowboys, Bucs) and has spent six of the past eight seasons as a Browns assistant. He also has college coaching experience at Miami (2000) and Western Michigan (2005-06).
The team is finalizing negotiations with Chudzinski, and an official announcement of the moves should be made later Monday or Tuesday
