The new defensive coordinator, promoted from secondary coach, says he expects to be ‘an extension’ of head coach Brandon Staley
Derrick Ansley said the words out loud Tuesday that many Chargers observers from near and far had been saying for almost all of Brandon Staley’s two-year tenure as the team’s head coach.
The Chargers improved defensively after Staley’s and Ansley’s first season. They ranked 21st in points given up this past season after ranking 29th in the 2021 season. They ranked 20th in yards surrendered this past season after ranking 23rd in ‘21. However, the Chargers’ wild-card playoff loss to the Jacksonville Jaguars, when they coughed up a 27-0 lead en route to a 31-30 defeat, cast a dark cloud over what had been a rousing end to the regular season. Change was inevitable and it began with the naming of new offensive and defensive coordinators.Ansley was then promoted to replace Hill, getting a thumbs-up from James.
