Ryan Day has 16/1 odds to become the next head coach of the Los Angeles Chargers, according to the latest odds from the sportsbook betonline.ag.

According to McElroy and Cubelic in the Morning, here is the full list of probable candidates and their odds.

• Jim Harbaugh 2/1

• Bill Belichick 3/1
• Ben Johnson 4/1
• Kellen Moore 5/1
• Frank Smith 7/1
• Bobby Slowik 12/1
• Eric Bieniemy 12/1

Day has been the head coach of the Ohio State Buckeyes for the past five seasons, leading the club to the College Football Playoff three times. He helped develop three future first-round quarterbacks at Ohio State: Dwayne Haskins, Justin Fields, and C.J. Stroud.

We’ll have to wait and see whether the Chargers opt to give him the opportunity to manage an NFL squad.
