Shaw interviewed with the Los Angeles Chargers on Thursday. The winningest coach in Stanford history with a 96-54 record in 12 seasons also interviewed with Denver for the Broncos’ head coaching job in 2023 before they hired Sean Payton.

He did not coach in 2023 but was an assistant with Philadelphia, the Raiders and Baltimore in the NFL before going to Stanford as an assistant to then-head coach Jim Harbaugh.

NFL teams can interview coaching candidates employed by other teams in person starting Monday after the divisional round of the playoffs.

Titans controlling owner Amy Adams Strunk promised to cast a wide net in replacing coach Mike Vrabel, who was fired on Jan. 9 after six seasons.
