Ollie Wilson, LaDainian Tomlinson’s first-year position coach, is returning to the Chargers in 2008 to coach the team’s running backs. Wilson signed a two-year contract with the team.
The Chargers also agreed to new two-year contract terms with special teams coach Steve Crosby, quarterbacks coach John Ramsdell and offensive line coach Hal Hunter, Jr., completing Head Coach Norv Turner’s staff for the 2008 season.
A veteran with 17 years of NFL coaching experience on his resume, Wilson returns to San Diego (1997-2001) after spending the last six seasons with the Atlanta Falcons (2002-07). In his last season with the Chargers, Wilson tutored Tomlinson as a rookie. It was a season that was capped off with LT being named the runner-up for the Associated Press Offensive Rookie of the Year Award. Tomlinson had a monster season, setting team rookie records with 1,236 yards, 10 touchdowns and 1,603 total yards from scrimmage. His scrimmage mark was not only a team rookie record, but it also broke Lance Alworth’s 36-year old team record for scrimmage yards. Tomlinson earned All-Rookie honors from Pro Football Weekly and was tabbed as a third-alternate to the Pro Bowl.
