Jordan Schultz<\/a> is reporting that the Chargers are hiring Sean Spence<\/a> as their new inside linebackers coach.<\/p>\n

\"Chargers<\/a><\/p>\n

Spence, 35, is a former third-round pick of the Steelers back in 2012. He, unfortunately, sustained a serious knee injury early on his NFL career that wound up preventing him from appearing in a game until the 2014 season.<\/p>\n

However, Spence was able to return and play pretty well for the Steelers before he departed and signed a one-year, $2.5 million contract with the Titans. The Colts signed him a one-year, $2.5 million contract only to cut him loose coming out of the preseason.<\/p>\n

Indianapolis re-signed Spence a week later but elected to cut him loose and he eventually caught on with the Steelers.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Spence took his first coaching job as a special teams analyst at Western Michigan back in 2023. He has worked with linebackers and edge rushers the last two seasons.<\/p>\n

For his career, Spence appeared in 23 games for the Steelers, Titans and Colts, recording 163 tackles, six sacks, a fumble recovery, a forced fumble and three pass defenses.<\/p>\n
