Chargers add one year to coach McCoy's contract

Coach Mike McCoy received some stability to his tenure with the San Diego Chargers, as the team announced that McCoy had been given a one-year contract extension through the 2017 season.

In announcing the extension during a news conference Friday, general manager Tom Telesco said McCoy is someone the Chargers want to build around.

Although their 2015 campaign -- perhaps their final season in San Diego -- was considered a disappointment, the Chargers kept McCoy while dismissing six assistant coaches.
