Shane Steichen was named the Philadelphia Eagles' offensive coordinator during the 2021 offseason after spending the previous seven years (2014-20) with the Los Angeles/San Diego Chargers, where he worked alongside Eagles head coach Nick Sirianni.

In 2020, Steichen's first full season as the Chargers' offensive coordinator, Los Angeles registered the ninth-ranked offense in the league, averaging 382.1 yards per game. Steichen's unit allowed the fourth-fewest giveaways (16, tied) in the NFL and ranked sixth in passing yards per game (270.6) as well as ninth in third-down efficiency (44.2 pct.).

Under Steichen's tutelage, quarterback Justin Herbert was voted 2020 PFWA Rookie of the Year after completing 396-of-595 attempts (66.6 pct.) for 4,336 yards, 31 TDs, 10 INTs and a 98.3 passer rating. He set NFL rookie records in completions and passing touchdowns, while producing the second-most passing yards by a rookie in league history, trailing only Andrew Luck in 2012 (4,374). In total, Herbert recorded Top 10 finishes in completions (fourth, tied), passing yards (sixth) and passing touchdowns (10th) in his debut season.

Additionally, Steichen helped guide wide receiver Keenan Allen to his fourth career Pro Bowl selection during the 2020 campaign. Allen ranked seventh in the NFL with 100 receptions for 992 yards and eight touchdowns, despite missing two games.

Steichen assumed the Chargers' offensive coordinator duties in an interim capacity in 2019. For the final eight contests of the season, he directed an offense that ranked fifth in the league in total yards per game (384.3), sixth in passing yards per game (272.1) and seventh in third-down conversions (42.7 pct.) and yards per play (5.9).

Prior to becoming offensive coordinator, Steichen served as the Chargers' quarterbacks coach from 2016-19. In that span, Philip Rivers earned three consecutive Pro Bowl honors following the 2016-18 seasons and ranked second in passing yards (17,824) and fourth in completions (1,446) and passing touchdowns (116). In 2017, Los Angeles led the NFL in passing offense (276.9 ypg) and Rivers totaled the league's second-most passing yards (4,515), behind Tom Brady (4,577). He also threw for 4,386 yards, including a career-high 16 passes of 40-plus yards, and 33 touchdowns (second-most in his career) in 2016.

From 2014-15, Steichen was an offensive quality control coach for the Chargers, working primarily with the team's wide receivers. In 2014, San Diego saw four players, including three wide receivers (Allen, Eddie Royal and Malcolm Floyd), reach 50-plus receptions, marking just the fourth time in team history that happened.

Steichen assisted the quarterbacks as an offensive quality control coach with the Cleveland Browns in 2013. Despite multiple injuries at the position, three starting quarterbacks (Jason Campbell, Brian Hoyer and Brandon Weeden) each recorded 300-yard passing performances for the first time in franchise history (sixth instance in NFL history).

Steichen first entered the NFL as a defensive assistant with the Chargers (2011-12) after spending one season as a full-time offensive assistant at Louisville (2010). He also worked as a student assistant and offensive graduate assistant at his alma mater, UNLV, where he played quarterback and left as the school's 12th all-time leading passer.

A native of Sacramento, CA, Steichen earned his degree in journalism and media studies from UNLV. He attended Oak Ridge High School in El Dorado Hills, CA, earning area MVP honors from the Sacramento Bee after leading his squad to a conference sectional title in 2002.

Steichen and his wife, Nina, have a son, Hudson, and a daughter, Stella. Steichen's older brother, Sean, was a punter at Boise State.
