Chargers meet with Chiefs ST Coordinator Dave Toub for HC job

The San Diego Chargers announced on Sunday they’ve met with Kansas City Chiefs Special Teams Coordinator Dave Toub for their head coach vacancy. He is the fourth coach the team has interviewed during their search.

Toub, 54, is currently in his 16th year as an NFL coach. His current position is Special Teams Coordinator for the Kansas City Chiefs.

Toub first joined the NFL in 2001 with the Eagles as the first ever quality control coach on special teams, serving under John Harbough.

Three years later, the Chicago Bears hired Toub as their special teams coordinator. 

Toub was voted the Special Teams Coach of the Year in 2006 as his unit played an instrumental role in the Bears capturing the NFC title.

Entering 2016, Toub's Chiefs led the NFL in kick return average (27.2) and six combined returns for touchdowns.  Last year, they ranked third in the NFL in average opponent starting field position.
