The Chargers have completed an interview with Chris O'Leary for their vacant defensive coordinator position, the team announced.
O'Leary is the defensive coordinator and safeties coach for Western Michigan University, where he led a top-10 national scoring defense in his first year.
O'Leary previously coached safeties for the Chargers in 2024, where he was integral in coaching Derwin James Jr. to his fourth Pro Bowl appearance.
Before that, O'Leary spent six seasons at Notre Dame. He started as a defensive analyst before becoming the defensive backs coach (safeties) from 2021 to 2023, coaching a handful of high-end players, including Kyle Hamilton and Xavier Watts.
O'Leary has also served as a coach at Florida Tech and Georgia State.
