Per NFL insider Albert Breer, the Rams have reportedly blocked the Chargers from attempting to interview Kevin O’Connell, the team’s offensive coordinator, for the same position with the Bolts.
There was some growing buzz that he’d be the first person head Brandon Staley would try to poach from his old team, but it doesn’t look like Sean McVay wants to see both of his coordinators leave the building in the same offseason.
With O’Connell now out of the picture, there’s also been reports that the Chargers may want to keep some of their offensive staff intact this offseason, which could include the retention of offensive coordinator Shane Steichen an/or quarterbacks coach Pep Hamilton.
