Pro Football Hall of Famer Deion Sanders has had some immediate success as a college football head coach, first at Jackson State and most recently with the Colorado Buffaloes, where he has helped revitalize and turn around what was one of the worst Power Five teams in the country. With the Los Angeles Chargers job now opening up this offseason, there’s at least some speculation that Sanders could be a candidate – even if it’s a longshot.

With the Chargers in search of a new head coach, the sportsbook betonline.ag has odds for several potential candidates wich include Deion Sanders, who they are giving 50/1 odds to be the next head coach in Los Angeles.

Here is the full list of potential candidates and their odds, via McElroy and Cubelic in the Morning.

  • 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
  • Lincoln Riley 16/1
  • Ryan Day 16/1
  • Dan Quinn 18/1
  • Brian Flores 20/1
  • Jerod Mayo 20/1
  • Brian Johnson 25/1
  • Raheem Morris 33/1
  • Deion Sanders 50/1
  • Philip Rivers 100/1

Obviously, at 50/1 odds, Sanders is very much considered a longshot to be the Chargers’ next head coach, but it’s certainly interesting that he is even on the list of potential candidates.
