Chargers fire coach Brandon Staley and GM Tom Telesco after 63-point ‘Thursday Night Football’ meltdown

The Chargers are cleaning house.

Head coach Brandon Staley and general manager Tom Telesco are out, according to multiple reports, after Thursday night’s debacle in which the team lost to the Raiders, 63-21.

The team, which had playoff aspirations this season, is 5-9 and in last place in the AFC West.

Staley had been head coach since 2020, having previously been the defensive coordinator on Sean McVay’s Rams staff.

Telesco had been the GM for 11 years.
