RM: I don't really see the point in this, with three weeks to go.

The Chargers weren’t done making changes when they let Brandon Staley
and Tom Telesco go on Friday.

The team announced late Friday morning that defensive run game
coordinator and defensive line coach Jay Rodgers had also been relieved
of his duties.

Rodgers was hired in 2021 as part of Staley’s inaugural coaching staff,
working with the outside linebackers while coordinating the defensive
run game. He moved to his more natural position of defensive line to
begin the 2022 season.

While highly regarded in league circles, Rodgers struggled to get the
defensive line to play up to their billing in three years in Los
Angeles. The Chargers ranked 32nd in run defense in 2021 and 2022 but
improved to 18th in 2023.

Assistant defensive line coach John Timu will likely take over the
position coach duties for the final three weeks of the season.
