The Los Angeles Chargers continue to wait and see whether Mike McDaniel will be Justin Herbert’s next offensive coordinator.
Saturday morning, though, provided a small stunner on McDaniel’s status with the Buffalo Bills.
According to The Athletic’s Dianna Russini, McDaniel canceled his planned interview with the Bills for their head-coaching job.

Russini noted that McDaniel “is still expected to become the Los Angeles Chargers offensive coordinator if he is not hired for any of the league’s five remaining head-coaching vacancies.”
As of this writing, McDaniel’s only other serious brush with a head-coaching job has been with the Las Vegas Raiders. He previously canceled a meeting with the Cleveland Browns after getting to Los Angeles and meeting with Jim Harbaugh and the Chargers.
